I rarely use my oven fryer for other than meat and veggies. But I wanted to make egg cups for breakfast so that my morning eggs could be changed up. I also, didn’t want it to take 20 minutes or longer to cook in the oven. I made them in the oven.

I was hooked after one bite of these eggs.

Egg cups or egg bites are made with eggs, egg whites and vegetables. For the egg muffins that I made in the air fryer, I used the following:

• Eggs – Just regular whole eggs in the shell.
• Some Egg whites(The egg whites found in the Costco carton)
• Spinach leaves,You can get more nutrition.
• Bell peppersThis is a great source for fiber and antioxidants.
• And then some Fat-free feta cheese. You can use any kind of cheese, but I really like the fat-free feta.

Then, it’s a simple ten minutes in the air fryer. You don’t need a mold to make these egg bites. I used silicone muffin cups. They are so inexpensive!

You can keep these egg cups in your fridge and enjoy one bite at a time. These egg cups are also great with avocado or guacamole.

Why not start your day off with eggs?

I have found that eating a higher-protein diet has been a huge help in my weight loss and maintenance. So, when I can start the day with eggs and egg whites, I know I’m setting up my day for success.

My goal is to get protein into every meal. To be honest, eggs are my favorite breakfast food. (For a complete list of ways I get protein, see this post.
