Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This will ensure that your omelet bites cook evenly and thoroughly. In a blender, combine the eggs, cottage cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, and salt. Puree the mixture until it reaches a smooth, uniform consistency. This creamy base will give your bites a delightful texture.
After achieving a smooth blend, add the shredded cheddar cheese and real bacon bits to the blender. Pulse a few times just to incorporate these ingredients without over-mixing.
Lightly spray your muffin or donut pans with non-stick cooking spray. This step is crucial to ensure that your omelet bites release easily after baking.
Carefully pour the egg mixture into the prepared pans. If using donut-shaped tins, fill the rings until they are almost full. If you’re using muffin tins, the shape won’t matter as much, so fill them generously.
Place the pans in the preheated oven and bake for 10 to 12 minutes. The omelet bites are ready when they spring back upon touch—this is a sign that they are cooked through.
Once baked, remove the pans from the oven and let the omelet bites cool slightly before removing them from the tins. For an extra touch, you can sprinkle some additional cheddar cheese on top and place the bites under the broiler for a minute or two until the cheese melts.
