Egg Bites with Pumpkin

I love me some egg bites, especially Starbucks’ Egg White & Roasted Red Pepper Sous Vide Egg Bites. I mean they taste phenomenal and keep me satisfied, but what I really love about them is how convenient they are. If I’m in a hurry I can eat them in a jiffy on my commute pre-workout.

Knowing this I’ve tried to recreate them to have on hand for busy weeks, but… I was definitely missing an ingredient as every time I would make they they would collapse in the center. Well peeeeeps the missing item was pumpkin.

I’ve mastered the egg bites, thanks to my trusty friend pumpkin puree. If your not a pumpkin lover don’t worry, the pumpkin in this recipe is mainly contributing to texture.

Let me know how much you love these egg bites and if you want to see a variation with different vegetables and spices.
