BROCCOLI CHEDDAR BAKED EGG BITES WITH COTTAGE CHEESE

These simple Broccoli Cheddar Baked Egg Bites are a healthy, protein-packed breakfast option made with cottage cheese. They’re perfect for meal prep, freezer-friendly, vegetarian, and gluten-free!

INGREDIENTS

  • 9 large eggs
  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese, divided
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 head broccoli, chopped
  • 1 cup spinach, chopped

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Preheat your oven to 300°F and prepare a silicone muffin tray by lightly coating it with non-stick spray.
  • In a blender, combine the eggs, cottage cheese, half of the cheddar cheese, salt, and black pepper. Blend until the mixture is smooth and well-combined.
  • Pour the egg mixture evenly into the prepared muffin tray, filling each slot about halfway (the egg bites will puff up while baking).
  • Evenly distribute the chopped broccoli and spinach over the egg mixture in the tray, then sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese on top of each.
  • If desired, add a pinch of salt and pepper on top. Bake for 30 minutes at 300°F. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before carefully removing the egg bites from the tray.

NOTES

Storing in the Fridge:

  • Let the egg bites cool completely before transferring them to an airtight container.
  • Store in the fridge for up to 5 days.

Freezing Instructions:

  • Arrange the egg bites on a baking sheet and freeze for 1-2 hours until solid.
  • Transfer the frozen egg bites to a sealable container or freezer bag. They will keep in the freezer for up to 2 months.

Reheating:

  • To reheat, defrost frozen egg bites in the fridge overnight. Warm them in the microwave for 1-2 minutes or until heated through.

PEACH CHERRY COBBLER

Peach Cherry Cobbler with Sweet Biscuit Topping is the ultimate homemade summer dessert, made with juicy fresh peaches and sweet Bing cherries. Serve it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a simple, from-scratch treat. This easy cobbler recipe is a delightful way to enjoy fresh stone fruits and cherries at their seasonal best.

INGREDIENTS

Filling:

  • 2 cups fresh peaches, sliced
  • 2 cups fresh cherries, pitted
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Topping:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, very cold
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Prepare the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 1 1/2-quart baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Make the Filling:
    • Arrange the sliced peaches and pitted cherries evenly in the baking dish.
    • In a small bowl, mix the sugar, cornstarch, and cinnamon. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the fruit.
  • Prepare the Topping:
    • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
    • Grate the cold butter using a box grater directly into the flour mixture. Use a fork to combine until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
    • In another bowl, whisk the egg, milk, and vanilla extract together. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just moistened.
  • Assemble and Bake:
    • Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough over the fruit filling, leaving some gaps for the filling to bubble through. Sprinkle additional sugar on top, if desired.
    • Bake for 40–45 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden and the filling is bubbling.
  • Cool and Serve: Allow the cobbler to cool for at least 30 minutes before serving. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired.

NOTES

  • Fresh vs. Frozen Fruit: While fresh fruit works best, you can substitute with frozen peaches and cherries. Thaw and drain any excess liquid before using to avoid a watery filling.
