Starbucks EGG BITES Copycat Recipe | Bacon and Gruyere SOUS VIDE Wannabe | NO MACHINE Sous Vide
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 มิ.ย. 2024
- Today I want to show you my version of the Bacon and Gruyere Starbucks sous vide Egg Bites. Now they are not going to be exactly the same because I will be baking these in my oven and Starbucks makes them using a sous vide machine which can cost around one hundred dollar and lets be real, do we need an extra kitchen gadget that collects dust on our kitchen? My kitchen is too small for that and I don't like having gadgets that I hardly ever use taking up space. Sous vide is a French term that means you are cooking something in a "vacuum" under water for a longer period of time. The Starbucks egg bites have the perfect texture and I can't say that mine were completely the same but if you want to save some money and a few trips to Starbucks make these instead.

Bacon and Gruyere Egg Bites | Starbucks Bacon and Gruyere sous vide Egg Bites Wannabe | NO Sous Vide Cooker
10 eggs
½ cup of shredded Gruyere cheese (60 g)
½ cup of shredded Monterey Jack cheese (60 g)
½ cup cottage cheese (60 g)
½ teaspoon salt (2 g)
Fresh black pepper
4 slices of applewood-smoked bacon
Hot Sauce (optional)
Non-stick spray
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Slice the bacon into thirds and place them on a cooking sheet that has been lined with aluminum foil. Bake the slices of bacon for 15-20 minutes or until crispy. Places cooked bacon on a plate that has been lined with paper towels and lay them flat.
Preheat oven to 300 degrees F and place a deep-dish baking dish that has 1 inch of hot water in it on the bottom rack of the oven. This helps the eggs cook evenly and keeps it moist. Spray muffin tin with non-stick spray.
Add the eggs, shredded gruyere cheese, shredded Monterey Jack cheese, cottage cheese, salt, and pepper (and hot sauce) to a blender and blend until light and frothy. Fill muffin tins almost all the way to the top with the egg mixture. Divide the bacon equally among all of the muffin tins and bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the center of the egg bites are just set. Allow to cool for 5 minutes, then carefully remove them from the muffin tin. Serve warm. Enjoy!

I have set the Lord always before me; because he is at my right hand, I shall not be shaken.

#baconandgruyereeggbites - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
the hot sauce is actually not what makes the egg bites darker, it’s the fact that we heat up the egg bites (which are just as pale as yours when they are in the package) in a 500°+ oven for a minute before serving. Personally, I’d recommend tenting your egg bites with foil before baking, and then heating them up in a hot oven for a few minutes when you are ready to eat so they get that golden color.
I work at Starbucks, and these absolutely kill my wallet, since employees don’t get the food for free :( I’m so glad I don’t have to spend a ton of money on these anymore
Thanks Ann! Hope you enjoy them, I can only imagine how expensive it would be to have to pay for your food everyday at work. 💖
Whaaaat girl where you work out? We get a free food item every day(work day). And the leftovers in the box.
You must work at a licensed store?
@ann f One of my fave perks about working at Starbucks is the free food item and drinks per shift!
And while the pandemic was happening partners were allowed to go in and get their free food item and drink even on off days. But that ended at the end of October.
I don’t know why they stopped that since the pandemic is still going on ☹️
But yeah!! You should be saving money by working at starbs!! Not hurting your pockets! Ouch.
@@lee7958 yeah my store isn't corporate, its in a hospital and is owned by one of the greediest people I've ever met... didn't even shut down the store when one of the employees got covid
I used ricotta instead and it was so much more creamy and fluffy
That sound amazing! 😁
piazorchid I was wondering about that!! Ricotta cheese has a lot less salt than cottage cheese😊
You used ricotta instead of the cottage cheese ? Or the schredded
@@911SuzieQ ricotta instead of the cottage
@@mrsginny yummy 😋
“Leftover bacon” - a phrase that doesn’t exist in my vocabulary
😂🙌
It's more of the technique of doing this. Two years ago I didn't use a blender, a water pan underneath, nor cream cheese or cottage. It basically came out like a baked egg and not the texture I was craving. Today I used your same technique just with 2 different kinds of cheeses, Gouda Cheese and Cream Cheese. I used my hand blender and the water pan underneath. Omg what a difference. They seriously look like they are from Starbucks!
Thanks for sharing! ❤️
For better flavor I found using ricotta cheese instead of cottage cheese makes them smoother, fluffier and absolutely delicious. If you're like me and don't care for bacon you can use sun dried tomatoes and spinach for an even better flavor. I added smoked gouda cheese instead of Monterey jack cheese. So many variations to this recipe so have fun.😋
Great Job Lydia! Thanks for the video. Will def try this out bc I love the egg bites.
Love this vid. Love how you talk about the “mistakes”.
Great video. I’ve been making egg cups for 3 years with silicone cups in my air fryer for years. The texture is exactly what you’d think it would be so the Starbucks cups difference is more the Sous vide method that makes it look smoother. But ultimately the taste is the same. It’s just the texture is different. Love the oven method with the water. Never tried that. Will have to!
I just came across your channel. Love, love, it! Thumbs waaaay up for this recipe. I will take these any day over the $5 Starbucks version. Thank you so much for posting! New subbie.
Thank you Debra! 💖🤗
5:10 "They're gonna get to your mouth eventually" cracked me up! $5 for those two bites is daylight robbery...though these stores sell convenience and a way out of laziness.
🤣🤣🤣
I know right! That's a lot of money for a couple of egg bites 🤣
For that amount I can get a couple of chapli kababs and roti in my neck of the woods...the kind of food that will make me feel ashamed to enjoy eating alone lolol!
@@OjaysReel ooo girl! You have a gift at making me hungry and laughing all at the same time! 😄
Stinky smell of bacon!? You’re crazy haha. That’s the greatest smell in the world
Haha it does smell good but I don't like it in my clean clothes and the rest of my house 😁
Haha said the same thing
@@LydiaApril That’s a fair point haha
Great cost saving recipe, Lydia. I love Starbucks but hate the prices too. LOL This looks close enough for my taste!
Take care,
Rob
Seriously! Plus just driving all the way out to Starbucks is a no go for me unless I'm in town and I really want something from there lol
Totally loved your video. Thank you. It was awesome and delicious.
I like SB egg white bites and I only enjoy them when its out of convenience...when we travel or whenever I don’t have to cook on Sundays before church services. I will try your method. 😉Thanks 🙂
Happy Monday, Lydia. You're better off making those homemade rather than purchasing those on the outside. They probably taste a lot better too. Thanks for the share my lovely friend. Have a beautiful and blessed week.
Hey Ed, happy Monday to you too! I agree and it's a money saver so winner winner chicken dinner! Have a beautiful and blessed week as well!
I love the intro cause omg i agree they’re so expensive like wtf but theyre soooo good
Thank you!!!! 😁 Yes they are super pricey 🥺
Your texture is different because of the way they were cooked. Also, there is no salsa in those particular egg bites. The bacon gruyere egg bites are just eggs, a combination of gruyere and Monterey Jack cheeses, and a slice of bacon. The reason their egg bite tastes more cheesy is because it’s a mixture with basically half egg, half fat (cheese).
You’ll never get the same smooth texture without the sous Vide process, but you’re absolutely right, they’re overpriced. This is a great alternative for those who want something similar at home, and don’t have a sous Vide machine. Although it’s a worthwhile purchase especially for meats! 😊
I agree Emily 😁💖
They have hot sauce in these. It's in their website ingredients for the Bacon Gruyere bites.
Actually, if you sit the muffin tin directly in the water bath and tent it with foil you get the texture. Just sitting the pan of water on a separate shelf won’t do it.
Ooo I totally want those😍, yours looked great !!!💗💞
Hey Chantelle!!! Thank you so much 💖💖💖💖 Hope you had an awesome weekend!
Lydia April my weekend wasn’t too bad thank you but I hope that yours was great 🥰🥰🥰
@@chantellet2662 mine was good as well 💜💜💜😊
Yours turned out looking really pretty
Yours look great. I saw where you can brush some butter on the inside of the muffin tin or whatever you're putting the eggs into. That might help give a little buttery flavor. Also he used some green onion. I guess you can make them however you like them. I didn't know Starbucks used hot sauce. I'm going to try a little of that. Thanks for the video.
You're welcome Shannon! I wish I would have added butter because that sounds really good with extra butter flavor! I think they add hot sauce for the added color and a hint of flavor. I hope you love them if you try them out! 😊💖
If you have a small blender, blend half of the mix at a time and combine.
You can heat the egg mixture to about 35c before cooking in oven to stop them going rubbery.
Thanks Matt, loved the tips 😁👍
God blees you, i love your recipe
This recipe is good.. I make it often, but it can't compare to SB egg bites. Although expensive, i still get SB egg bites from time to time .. they are delicious!!
True, you really need a sous vide machine to get that true Starbucks texture. Some are relatively inexpensive to get so its possible to get close to the exact thing. Maybe one day I'll do it if I get a machine.
I hate that I feel the same way. I’m just craving that exact taste and I can’t replicate it.... maybe I should try msg?!🧐
Thannnnkkkk yooouuuu! lol I've been looking for something like this to replace the Starbucks ones. And by replace I mean I bought them once and they were kinda bland for almost $5....hehe. Yours look so good! I'll definitely be trying these.
You're welcome!!!!! If you want, you can get the machine (someone was saying they are like 50 bucks at Walmart) to get the perfect texture but honestly they are pretty delicious baked and you save 50 bucks lol 😁💖💖💖
Lydia April I like your way better lol 💕🌸
@@Melinda_LL thank you! 😍😍😍
I added a little almond milk, sweet peppers, mozzarella cheese w bacon on top. ( choice of milk adds fluffiness)They turned out amazing w SB bites texture!! Baked 22 minutes. I'm not sure if my pan of boiling water in the oven worked but did it anyway. I guess the steam is good.
Ah I love these! Glad to see you make em :)
Yea they are really good =)
Good enough. Thx
Yours look just fine, actually better
Iwill try soon and freeze soon xxx
looks good
Those egg bites are awesome to go as well, and I don't even bother heating eggs up if I make them kind of like that and I have somewhere I have to go. I just grab my pre-made muffin shaped eggs and head out to wherever I have to go.
I recently steam cooked two eggs in a Ramekin inside a pan on top of a trivet over some water to make it look like when I fry eggs but put water on the side and put the lid on so that it looks like over easy without having to flip it. I couldn't believe how moist and tender those eggs were! The only problem was the yolks were hard but that was because I erred on the side of caution with the time since I hadn't done it that way before and wasn't sure how much time I would need. I figured I would start with more time and then cut off a minute at a time each time I make them until I know exactly how long to make them just the way I like them: whites white but yolks good and runny!
Look at you! Getting close to 10,000 subs!
Thanks Chris, hopefully someday lol
@@LydiaApril ill help towards that goal!
Thank you!
Made these this morning because I’m definitely not willing to pay $5 for egg bites every day, even though they’re my current obsession. I used sausage instead of bacon and a mix of different cheese since I was trying to use what I have at home, and they were great! Definitely not the same texture (except for the ones in the middle of the muffin pan) but that’s okay as I’m not willing to spend $100 on a kitchen gadget that I won’t use much. Regardless though, they hit the spot! Any recommendations on how to reheat these out of the freezer without giving them time to defrost?
Oh I love how you are using what you have on hand to make these at home! I wish there was a way to get that texture that the Starbucks ones have down because that would be amazing without the machine. Maybe place them a few hours or over night in the refrigerator to thaw out or just place them frozen on a cookie sheet and wrap them in aluminum foil (so they don't dry out) and heat them up in the oven at 350 F until they are fully warmed.
Very unprofessional to be telling us all your mistakes. Why not just do it over until you know what you are doing, then film it correctly.
@@LydiaAprilI love these !! Thank you for all of your efforts for our good!❤️
@@yakk13I think it’s cool that she’s showing us her mistakes. It helps people like me. Plus I don’t think she said she was a professional egg maker😂. Let’s all be polite
Thanks for the video, can you please make a follow up video using some of the suggestions in the comments and of course using a blender😅. I make these for my family, and they really love the Starbucks flavor, but my pocket disagrees.
Yours look great! I think healthier than SB's. I just tried them and they came out like yours. Next time I will try Ricotta. I bet SB's adds butter to the bites, as my hands are always so greasy eating them!
Thank you Kay! I think you are on to something ☺️ Have a wonderful weekend!
Thank you so much for sharing 💕✴️❤️✨you made them look so easy to make.. mine are in the oven as I'm testing this message.. lolz..✴️I just liked and subscribed 💗💜🌈🦕
Thank you! Lol I had years of practice 😅 Hope you had much success with yours! 💖💖💖
Lovely video. Love to see u making more Indian food soon. Happy Monday
I'd love to some day 😁
I think cooking them in a water bath in a low and slow oven would help the texture. Cooking fast in a tin where heat hits from all sides is drying the egg out/making it fluffy.
Just thinking about how gourmet scrambled eggs are cooked low and very slow (think Gordon Ramsay) and the eggs come out creamy and soft. But if you use normal heat, your scrambled eggs have more of a texture of an omelette.
The fact that you called the smell of bacon stinky, is WILD!!
Hi thank you i made them to day i hope there good
Hope you loved them Ava! 😊
I really loved them my family would not stop eating them
@@avafeliciano8343 thanks for the update, I'm so glad to hear that 💗😊
She seems like she has good energy. ✌🏽
nice, thoughts about cooking them in the microwave for 1 minute, then broil until tops are brown?
That might work as long as they are in something that is microwave safe 🙂
I don't like cottage cheese. Could I use Feta cheese or sour cream instead? Would turkey bacon work as well?
They look good to me ,never had Starbucks ones anyway, I would use smoke less bacon. My question ? Is it ok ,safe to freeze them?
Thank you, they should be fine if frozen 🙂
Stinky smell of bacon ?? Whaaaat smells like heaven
You are so glowy I want to cry 😭😭
They sell them in the freezer section at target also.
I’ve not been able to replicate the texture. I think you really need the machine to get that creamy whipped texture.
I completely agree!
I know it sounds expensive and all good if you're trying to Crave from eating unhealthy food it's better than eating something from McDonald's and it does kind of hit the spot as far as everything for more food and unhealthy snacks
BUTTER!
Those would be wonderful with paprika, fermented tomatillo, garlic, and cream cheese.
That does sound really good! 👍🙂
I'm going to try to make them this weekend. :)
Also if you cook it in a silicone mold it’ll be darker I don’t use silicone but if you want it darker that’s how you get a darker.
Actually yours are healthier. You should check out the study of what is in an egg launched by panera bread to see how their competitor SB makes breakfast. Ill never eat SB food again after that. Yours are perfect and made of actual food.
Thank you! Yes, I agree! That's one reason I try to eat out less... restaurants are known to use ingredients that are not actual food, scary... can't believe they even are able to get away with that kind of stuff
This intro is more salty than the bacon you cooked :D
😅😅
Nice! Can you also make a video of Starbucks kale and portabella mushroom sous vide egg bites?
Your instructions are easy to follow. Keep up the good work 💯🚀🚀🥇
Thank you, great suggestion! I'll look into it 😁
@@LydiaApril I finally tried it out...forgot to add the monterey cheese! I did blend the cooked bacon with the eggs and cottage cheese, salt pepper and chilli powder. I recommend blending the bacon, the egg bites have a bacon flavor. But its missing the cheese so its kinda not great and not good..
Baking them changes the texture. You need a sous vide appliance for that texture.
Is there something i can use other than ricotta or cottage cheese🙂
I would stuck to the cottage cheese 🙂
Yours look better 🤩
Thank you! 🤗💕
Your hilarious I agree five dollars is way too much.
I came here because I’m tired of paying $5 for these addicting little things 😂
Sous vide may make sense for a busy home cook; pop it in the bath and go on with your day then come back to whatever succulence is in that plastic bag. But how many times does a home cook use such a thing? Not my cup of tea as there's little culinary skill in bagging and bathing. And I'm not in the habit of buying udder or tough cuts of meat (and if I did, my pressure cooker is always here). So no iRobot, you're not getting some space in my kitchen!
Hehe thank you! 🤣🤣🤣 Love that I'm not the only one that sees it that way too, on the other hand my mom keeps telling me how good pressure cookers are also so I might have to eventually get one but I'm gonna hold off as long as possible 💜💜💖
😅😂😂until when absolutely necessary.
What temperature did you cook them?
375 If you need the recipe, it's in the video description 🙂
I have been at Starbucks twice in my life lol, their products are overpriced and overrated.
But i like Bacon and cheese 😋.
WOW!!!! Now that is impressive, I should follow your lead 😁
@@LydiaApril Don't because sometimes I spend money on other stupid things 😅😂
We all do lol
I heard low fat cottage cheese kills the recipe it has to be reduced fat or full fat to come out right 🥰
They arent soft, because you didnt put them into the water bath. You have to put the muffin tin directly into the water pan, so they get nice and soft. 👍
I like homemade better Lydia ❤️😀❤️
Hehe thank you Lightning! Hope you are having a great day! 😁💙💙
Lydia April Thank you Lydia ❤️❤️❤️
That fruity undertone is the cheese
how much hot sauce?
So when you bake them they are no longer sous vide. Instead these are mini frittatas. The water process changes the way the eggs are cooked in a sous vide machine. However, good job.
Ahh that makes sense, thanks Omar! 😁
Thank you for your recipe I will use today. 👍🏾
. It seems to me that. Starbucks eggbites have a little bit of flour in them or something.
This is to much to do I'll let SB do it for me 😘😋
I don't blame you 😅
These tasted good, but didn’t taste at all the SB. I don’t eat them with hot sauce, so the flavor is important, as it can’t be masked.
Measurements?
Dam this lady is a smoke show, holy moses.
I tried every recipe on you tube and none come close to Starbucks Egg Bites
They are less expensive here were I’m from
Did you say “avoid stinky smell of bacon”? What planet are you from? Thanks for the recipe.
🥓Stinky smell of bacon ? 🥓
Dude just say baking the bacon avoids the "stinky smell"?.....
Stinky smell....
Bacon smells amazing, it's literally one of the most appreciated smells in the world.
Then I went ahead and reviewed this video
Just use a chop stick to mix it.
Your texture was off because there is no way to duplicate the texture obtained using the even, equal, controlled temperature of a Sous vide in an oven. You will never duplicate it without the proper equipment.
Your commentary is Great, but I found myself fast forwarding through the entirety of it all in spurts... pardon my attention span lol
Your very honest?
All you have to do is place a pan of water in your oven under the muffin tin...
You have a stand mixer with a wisk... should've just used that and not your ninja blender thing....
I think Starbucks eggbites are made with egg whites
Starbucks put hot sauce in their bacon guryree egg bites ? They aren't spicy at all.
$6.45 plus tax in Canada
That's a lot 😞
1st thing you can get a Sous vide at Walmart for $50 that works great and second you didn’t get the same texture because you didn’t Sous vide them.😁
You should look up Sous vide it’s very versatile and is small in stature but does a lot especially for tough cuts of meat.
Thanks Mike 😁Thats not a bad price the only thing is I'd hardly ever use it and I try to be really intentional about the things I buy 🤷🏻♀️
Lydia April if you ever did a chuck roast or any tough cut of meat you can make them as tender as filet without cooking it to death! You might change your mind!😉
@@MikeR65 I'll definitely keep that in mind 😁
@MikeReally you just talked ME into getting one!
Ummm bacon is the best smell every lol
Did she just say the “stinky smell of bacon?” What in the…. *leaves*
You messed up at every step lol! I would of never known if you didint say it.
Stinky bacon smell, there is no such thing 😂😂😂
Don't use a knife on a nonstick pan dummy
Honestly I will pay the extra because this recipe is nothing like a sou vide bite. Why bother making something that doesnt even come close to what you are attempting to replicate?
Puleeze get on with the recipe.
Video took too long to get to the point. Moved on
Fwiw. Yes, everyone needs a $70 sous vide.... There isn't another appliance in the kitchen that can do what it does, the way it does it... If you aren't sous viding every steak, you're missing out.
