Ingredients Needed For Keto Egg Bites
To make these tasty egg treats, you will need only a handful of ingredients. And, if you follow the keto diet, you most likely already have these available to you!
Eggs
Obviously, the most important ingredient in this recipe, eggs, make up the bulk of ingredients and help these bites not only hold together but add nutrition as well.
Eggs are rich in protein and are great at keeping you full all morning long.
Heavy Cream
Heavy cream helps to thin out the egg mixture so that it’s easier to pour. It also helps minimize the eggs’ rubberiness, creating a lighter, airier, more tender bite.
Cheese
Cheese adds a punch of flavor to these keto egg bites, making them extra delicious and rich! The cheese also helps everything to hold together and remain solid, even after storing in the fridge.
Bacon
Cooked bacon adds a bunch of smoky and rich flavor to the dish. The delicious combination of eggs and bacon is perfect for breakfast or brunch.
Cream Cheese
Adding just the slightest touch of tanginess to the recipe, cream cheese makes these bites extra creamy. Plus, it adds plenty of fat resulting in a very filling and hearty keto snack.
Salt
Salt is an absolute must and helps to bring out all of the other flavors. You can replace or substitute a lot of ingredients, but salt is a necessity!
Spinach
Use baby spinach to add a bit of greenery to these bites and help you get in some extra veggies. Spinach goes very well with bacon and eggs – all of the flavors complement one another!
Please note: Check out the recipe card at the bottom for a full list of ingredients used to make this low-carb recipe.
Quick Tips:
- If you do not have bacon, you could use your favorite keto-friendly sausage instead. Just make sure to cook it before adding it to the recipe.
- Be careful not to overcook these egg bites, or they will turn out too firm and rubbery.
- You can change this recipe up by adding in other types of spices for an array of different flavors.
- Make sure not to overfill the molds. Otherwise, it will be too wet, resulting in soggy and moist keto egg bites.
How To Make Keto Egg Bites

For the full list of ingredients and exact instructions, scroll to the bottom of the post. But first, here are some tips, along with a quick overview of the recipe.
Blend All Ingredients
To make these keto egg bites in the instant pot, start by blending everything together in a blender. Pulse a few times to make sure everything is incorporated and smooth.
Pour Mixture Into Mold
Divide the mixture into 14 silicone egg bite molds with plenty of space at the top. Clip on the top to keep the egg mixture from being introduced to water while cooking.
Add water to the instant pot as well as the trivet and stack the molds on top.
Cook Keto Egg Bites
Add the lid to the instant pot and make sure that it is tightly sealed. Set the instant pot to steam and cook the bites for 7 to 10 minutes. They usually are done around 8 to 9 minutes.
Serve And Enjoy!
Carefully remove the egg bites to have immediately, or allow them to cool before storing for later.
What To Serve With Instant Pot Egg Bites
These keto-friendly egg bites are full of protein and fat, so they really are substantial on their own.
However, if you want to add a little sweetness to the savory, try these bites with a side of low-carb toast covered in some sugar-free raspberry jam.
Or, if you are a fan of savory, kick up the saltiness even more with homemade sausage balls.
Frequently Asked Questions About Keto Egg Bites
Before we get to the printable recipe card, here are some questions people often ask about instant poy egg bites.
How long do keto egg bites last in the fridge?
Egg bites can be kept in the fridge for up to one week if stored in an airtight container. Make sure to leave them out just long enough for them to cool down before putting them in the fridge.
The longer eggs sit out, the shorter the shelf life they will have.
To store them for longer, you can freeze these bites for up to 3 months if kept airtight. To reheat, you can place them in the microwave.
Are sous vide egg bites good for you?
Yes, egg bites are good for you! They are little protein bombs between the eggs and bacon. They are also high in fat from the cheese, heavy cream, and cream cheese, which is great on a keto diet.
What can I add to keto egg bites?
If you want to add even more flavor to these bites or bulk them up a bit, you can add in your favorite low-carb vegetables. Some tasty options would be mushrooms, celery, and tomato.
You could also add in some extra spices for more flavor!

Ingredients
Instructions
-
Grease each egg bite mold if needed.
-
Add all ingredients to a blender and pulse for 10 to 20 seconds until everything is combined.
-
Divide mixture between 14 silicone egg bite molds. Each mold should be about ¾ full. Clip on the lids so there isn’t any excess steam getting into the egg mixture as it cooks.
-
Pour 1 ¼ cup of water into the Instant Pot (an 8-quart works best, but a 6-quart can be used). Place the trivet into the pot and stack the egg molds on top.
-
Lock on the lid and place the valve into the sealing position. Set to steaming for 7 to 10 minutes. I find 8 to 9 minutes works well. After the time is up, place valve to vent for a quick pressure release.
-
Remove egg bite molds from the Instant Pot then remove the lids. Scoop each egg bite out of it’s mold with a spoon and enjoy.
