Dunkin Egg Bites Recipe
SUBSTITUTIONS AND ADDITIONS
Our recipe highlights the cheddar flavor and heartiness of fresh veggies. But the possibilities and combinations are endless.
No matter the mix-ins, kitchen shears make cutting ingredients down to a small, uniform size easy.
Here are some more ideas:
EGGS: You can use egg whites instead of whole eggs for a lighter option. If you’d prefer, you can buy pasturized whites in the dairy section instead of cracking the eggs yourself!
MILK: This recipe calls for 2% or whole milk. You could also use half and half or heavy cream for a heartier egg bite.
VEGGIES: Mix and match different vegetables to add more veggie flavor, such as baby spinach, mushrooms, or grape tomatoes. We chose a combination of red and green bell peppers for ours.
MEAT: You can customize the omelet bites using your favorite cooked meats, such as turkey bacon, chicken sausage, crispy bacon, or even bacon bits.
CHEESE: For unique flavor variations, experiment with different kinds of cheese, such as feta, Colby jack, or Swiss. A four-cheese blend would also be delicious. If you want a bit of heat, use a spicy Mexican cheese blend. You could also use sharp cheddar, Monterey jack cheese, or shredded pepper jack cheese.
HOW TO MAKE DUNKIN OMELET BITES
Start your day right with Dunkin’ Donuts bacon, egg, and cheese mini omelet bites! We make ours in a donut pan for adorable egg donuts with plenty of delicately crispy edges and hot and fluffy insides.
Here’s how to make this easy breakfast recipe:
STEP ONE: Begin by preheating your oven and spraying a full-sized donut-shaped muffin tin with cooking spray.
You can use a regular muffin tin if you don’t have a donut-shaped tin. Using a silicone pan will make it super easy to remove them when you’re done cooking!
PRO TIP: Don’t toss out the pie crust lid. You can use it as a domed lid for the finished pie.
STEP TWO: In a medium-sized mixing bowl or large measuring cup with a spout, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
STEP THREE: Sprinkle the diced bell peppers, onions, and meat evenly between the donut pan depressions.
Pour the egg mixture into each cup once the veggies and meat have been distributed. It should fill each cup about ⅔ – ¾ full.
STEP FOUR: Top each cup with shredded cheddar cheese, ensuring you use all the cheese.
STEP FIVE: Bake for 20-25 minutes until the omelet bites look and feel set and slightly golden on the top.
STEP SIX: Allow the omelette bites to cool in the pan for a few minutes, then flip them out onto a clean plate or cutting board.

Dunkin Omelet Bites
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- ¼ cup milk
- ½ teaspoon table salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ cup diced bell peppers your choice of color; I chose a combination of red and green
- ¼ cup diced onions
- ¼ cup diced cooked bacon or sausage cooked and crumbled -or- diced ham
- ¼ cup freshly shredded mild cheddar cheese you can substitute sharp cheddar, Monterey jack cheese, or even shredded pepper jack cheese
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spray a donut-shaped muffin tin with cooking spray.
- In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper.
- Distribute the diced bell peppers, onions, and meat evenly into the muffin cups.
- Pour the egg mixture into each muffin cup, filling them about ⅔- ¾ full.
- Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top of each cup.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the omelet bites are set and slightly golden.
- Allow them to cool for a few minutes. Gently use a butter knife to remove the omelet bites from the muffin tin.
Notes
- Be sure to take time to measure out your ingredients and chop up your peppers before you begin. You should also crumble your bacon or sausage, or chop your ham into small chunks.
- If the omelet breakfast bites don’t easily flip out, use a plastic fork to gently loosen any stuck omelets from the donut pan. A plastic fork bends, so it does less damage to your egg bites, and it shouldn’t scratch your pan.
