How To Make tamed jalepeno egg bites

  • 7 delicate and delicious egg bites.  Good any time of day!
    1
    Spray the Egg Bite Mold (available on Amazon) with oil. Put 2 slices of Jalapenos into each cup.
  • 2
    Break the eggs into a blender. Add cheeses, sour cream and Jalapeno peppers to the mix. Blend on high until completely blended and smooth.
  • 3
    Pour the mix into the molds until full. Take a tiny fork and make sure the slices of jalapenos stayed on the bottom.
  • 4
    Place the mold onto the wire rack from your Instant Pot. Carefully cover with foil to seal out any water from dripping into the eggs.
  • 5
    Pour 2 cups of water into your Instant Pot. Very carefully set the trivet with the eggs on it, into the pot.
  • 6
    Close the lid. Set the Instant Pot to 'STEAM' and change the time to 8 minutes on HIGH Pressure.
  • The mold will simply lift off and your eggs are waiting.
    7
    At the end of the cycle, turn the pot OFF. Let it naturally release for 7 minutes or longer. Carefully (it's hot!) Remove the egg tray from the pot. If it's still hot, let it cool for another 5 minutes.
  • Fresh out of the Instant pot.
    8
    Lay a plate over the mold and flip it over so the eggs can settle onto the plate. Shake a little Braggs Sprinkle Seasoning on the tops if desired.
  •  So quick and easy to just pop them out a couple of times a week.
    9
    Serve with a splash of Frank's RedHot Chili Lime Sauce if you like more spice. (The tamed jalapenos are tangy but not HOT so you may want to add more heat)
