Egg bites with turkey bacon and chives
These low carb egg bites are our latest morning must-haves. Make them for breakfast, or enjoy them as a snack with one (or all!) of your favorite toppings. They do take some time in the oven, but low and slow is key here to achieve the creamy, fluffy consistency we're going for.

Instructions
5 steps- 1
Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a 13" × 9" (33 x 23 cm) baking dish with parchment paper - the paper should come up the sides of the dish. Place the dish in a deep roasting tin (large enough to comfortably fit the dish you're using for the egg bites). Add hot tap water (not boiling) to the roasting tin until it reaches about 1-inch (2.5 cm) up the outer sides of the baking dish.

Finely chop the turkey bacon. Add butter to a large frying pan over medium-high heat. When the pan is hot, add the turkey bacon and fry until crispy.

Crack the eggs into a large bowl and add the whole milk, salt, and pepper. Mix with an immersion blender until smooth. If using a hand whisk, pour the egg mixture through a sieve after whisking to remove any remaining lumps or egg shells.

Pour the egg mixture into the baking dish lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle with crispy bacon and chives. Cover tightly with aluminum foil and bake for 1 hour.

Let the egg bites cool slightly, then lift them out of the dish by holding the sides of the parchment paper. Cut into 24 squares (if making 6 servings), which is 4 egg bites per serving.
