Ingredients
8 large eggs
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup grated gouda cheese
6 strips bacon, cooked and crumbled
1/4 cup chopped fresh chives
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
1. Attach an Anova Precision Cooker to a vessel of water and set the temperature to 172°F (77.8°C). Spray the inside of 8 small (4-ounce) glass canning jars with nonstick oil spray.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until well combined. Fold in the grated cheese, crumbled bacon, and chopped chives. Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste.
3. Divide the egg mixture evenly between the jars. Secure the lids on the jars and place them in the water bath. Cook for 60 to 90 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the tops are slightly firm to the touch.
4. Remove the jars from the water bath with tongs and let them cool for a few minutes. Gently remove the egg bites from the jars and serve immediately or store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Notes
Make sure bacon is cooked crisp before adding. Use a blender for a fluffier texture. Jars should only be finger-tight to allow pressure release.
