This 5-ingredient recipe is a protein-packed source for grab-and-go breakfasts or refueling after a workout. With a texture similar to the sous vide egg bites you might have had from the Seattle-based coffee chain, these Pesto Egg Bites are light and fluffy. I like to make a batch of these and keep them in the refrigerator, because I think they’re just as tasty cold as they are hot out of the oven. Try my Dairy-Free Pesto Recipe if you want to make these completely from scratch.
