PREP TIME10 minutes

COOK TIME9 minutes

TOTAL TIME19 minutes

INGREDIENTS

·      4 eggs

·      2/3 cup (approx 150g) of fat-free cottage cheese

·      60g (2oz) of cheddar cheese, grated

·      handful of spinach, chopped

·      3 thin slices of extra lean ham, diced

·      black pepper

Ignore;">·      cooking oil spray

INSTRUCTIONS

1.   Add the eggs, cottage cheese and cheddar to a blender and blend until smooth.

2.   Grease the egg bite molds with cooking oil spray

3.   Add a little bit of the ham and spinach to each mold.

4.   Then pour in the egg mixture. Don't overfill. Around about 3/4 full is enough, as they will rise slightly when cooking, so if you over fill, they will spill over the top.

5.   Stir a little with a small spoon in each mold, just to ensure the filling is not all to the bottom of each mold.

6.   Season the top with black pepper (if using your own fillings and not using cheese, you may need a pinch of salt for seasoning)

7.   Cover the top of the egg bite mold with some aluminium foil (don't use the lid the molds come with)

8.   Add 1 cup (240ml) of water to the bottom of the instant pot. Place in the rack that comes with the Instant Pot. Then carefully place the egg bites mold onto of the rack.

9.   Add the lid (close valve if not self sealing), set to STEAM for 9 minutes. Once they have finished cooking, let the pressure release naturally for 9 minutes and then release any remaining pressure.

10.       Carefully lift the mold out of the instant pot. I use some silicone tongs (it will be hot, so remove with caution).

11.       Let to rest for a few mins and then carefully release out of the molds onto a plate.

12.       Enjoy!!!
