Ingredients 6 slices of bacon 8 eggs 2 oz heavy cream 1 oz gruyere, shredded ¼ tsp salt
Directions Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and the bacon. Bake approximately 10 minutes, or until crispy (longer for thicker cut bacon).

Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until firm in the center.
**When I’m on-the-go my car loves to take me to my favorite well-known coffeehouse chain, or maybe it’s me who takes the car there. Either way, I find myself enjoying a hot coffee paired with a scrumptious snack of Bacon and Gruyere Sous Vide Egg Bites. For a drive-thru option when in a pinch, it for me is a suitable option. When I’m really on my game however, I’ll whip up my own homemade egg bites to travel with as I make an effort to prepare the majority of my meals at home. I’m not huge on kitchen gadgets, so instead of sous vide egg bites, I bake them in muffin cups instead! This recipe is a simple, no fuss way to recreate the egg bites at home.
