Dunkin Omelet Bites Recipe

Introduction

Omelet bites are a fun and convenient way to enjoy a classic breakfast favorite. These mini omelets are packed with colorful veggies, savory bacon, and melted cheddar cheese, perfect for a quick meal or snack.

Ingredients

• 4 large eggs
• ¼ cup milk
• ½ teaspoon table salt
• ¼ teaspoon black pepper
• ¼ cup diced bell peppers (red and green recommended)
• ¼ cup diced onions
• ¼ cup cooked, diced, and crumbled bacon (or sausage or ham)
• ¼ cup freshly shredded mild cheddar cheese (or sharp cheddar, Monterey jack, or pepper jack)

Instructions

1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and spray a donut-shaped muffin tin with cooking spray.
2. Step 2: In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
3. Step 3: Evenly distribute the diced bell peppers, onions, and meat into the muffin cups.
4. Step 4: Pour the egg mixture into each muffin cup, filling them about two-thirds to three-quarters full.
5. Step 5: Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese evenly on top of each cup.
6. Step 6: Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the omelet bites are set and lightly golden on top.
7. Step 7: Let cool for a few minutes, then gently run a butter knife around each bite to loosen and remove them from the muffin tin.

Tips & Variations

• Try adding spinach or mushrooms for extra veggies and flavor.
• Use a silicone muffin mold for easier removal without needing cooking spray.
• Swap bacon for turkey sausage or diced ham to change up the protein.
• Make these ahead and freeze for a quick breakfast on busy mornings.
