Copycat Starbucks Egg Bites are ALL the rage in the Instant Pot Community? Why? Because they are SO good, and the Starbucks ones ain’t cheap. These are permanently replacing oven baked egg muffins. They don’t hold a candle to the texture and deliciousness of these!

There are recipes all over the web, but I was most inspired by this one at Foodie and Wine blog. I am watching my fat calories these days so I lightened up her recipe, and also increased the serving size to six. I only have a six quart Instant Pot and my ramekins were a bit over-sized so I had to cook in two batches. No big deal to me, I had plenty of other prep to do while these cooked! If you use pint size mason jars or 6 oz ramekins, you may be able to cook in one batch. Many people also recommend these Silicone Baby Food Molds as an alternative. I don’t have these but I have friends who certify that they work.

Feel free to embellish on the recipe. Use ham or sausage instead of bacon, or all three! Add spinach or herbs. Use feta or goat cheese. Make this recipe your own. That’s what I did!

I hope you enjoy! Here’s a video showing the process:

I’m on my fourth week of removing grains from my diet and on cue (usually lined up with a certain time of the month, if you know what I mean), I’ve started craving dessert. I saw where you could cook cakes in the air fryer, so I just had to give it a shot.

I kind of threw this recipe together as a hail Mary after looking at some similar recipes I have made in the past and not having all the ingredients needed on hand. I have to say that I came up with a combo that hit the spot!

These would be fantastic with a Paleo frosting, but I sprinkled on chocolate chips instead. Full disclosure – these are regular chocolate chips. I typically use EnjoyLife chips, but I was all out today. I tolerate dairy just fine, but I wanted to be honest about my photos since my chips are not Paleo. EnjoyLife Chips are non-dairy and cook just like regular chocolate chips. They are amazing!

I hope this turns out well for you. Before you ask, I have not baked this recipe in the oven yet, so I can’t say what the cooking time would be. My advice would be to set your oven at 350, cook it for 15 minutes and then check every few minutes after to see when it is done. One other note – all air fryers vary in cooking time. Keep in mind that I used a Power XL Air Fryer and this timing worked out for me. You may want to check your cakes at the 10, 12, and 15 minute mark to make sure they do not overcook. Good luck!
