Útmutatók

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Coat a 12-cup silicone or other nonstick muffin pan with olive oil.

Combine eggs, cottage cheese, 3/4 cup Gruyère, Monterey Jack cheese, hot sauce, salt, and pepper in a blender and blend at medium speed until smooth, about 30 seconds.

Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil.

Place the greased muffin pan in a large, high-rimmed baking pan (a jelly-roll pan works well). Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup Gruyère cheese and bacon among the prepared cups. Then divide the egg mixture among the cups, filling them about 3/4 full.

Carefully pour boiling water into the rimmed pan (avoiding eggs), until water reaches halfway up the sides of the muffin pan. Carefully transfer to the oven and bake until eggs are just firm, about 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes before removing the bites from the pan.
