INSTANT POT COPYCAT STARBUCKS EGG BITES

1. Cook 3 slices of bacon until crisp. Set aside to cool. Chop up the cooked bacon and distribute evenly into the bottom of a silicone egg bite mold.
2. Meanwhile, in a blender combine 6 large eggs, 1/2 cup cottage cheese, 1/2 cup shredded Gruyère, 1 tsp kosher salt, 1/2 tsp pepper, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, and a dash of cayenne. Blend until smooth. Pour the blended mixture into the egg mold over the bacon.
3. Pour 1 cup of water into an Instant Pot, then place a wire trivet over the water. Place the lid or cover the egg mold with foil, and transfer it into the Instant Pot on top of the trivet. Secure the Instant Pot lid, making sure the vent is sealed.
4. Press the 'steam' button for 10 minutes.
5. When cook time is complete, carefully turn the valve and release the pressure. Carefully open and remove the egg mold and let it cool, uncovered, for 10 minutes.
6. To remove the egg bites from the mold, carefully loosen up the edges using a mini silicone spatula or butter knife. Then flip to remove them onto a cutting board.
7. To store: let cool completely and store in an airtight container for up to 5 days. Reheat in the microwave for 45 seconds.
