Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Sweet Potato Egg Bites Snack.
Step 1
Start by preheating your air fryer to a cozy 375°F (188°C).
Step 2
To ensure your sweet potatoes don’t stick, give the basket a light spray with cooking spray.
Step 3
In a small mixing bowl, combine diced sweet potatoes with a drizzle of coconut oil, half a teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.
Step 4
Mix everything together until the sweet potatoes are nicely coated.
Step 5
Now, transfer this vibrant mixture into the air fryer basket and let them cook for about 10 minutes.
Step 6
Remember to toss them halfway through to ensure they cook evenly.
Step 7
When they’re tender and fragrant, take the basket out and let the sweet potatoes cool for a bit.
Step 8
While those sweet potatoes are cooling, it’s time to whip up the egg mixture.
Step 9
In a blender, combine eggs, cottage cheese, liquid egg whites, half-and-half, vanilla extract, your choice of sugar substitute, and another pinch of salt.
Step 10
Blend on high for 1 to 2 minutes until everything is well combined and fluffy—this is where the magic happens! Next, grab a 7-compartment silicone egg bite mold and give it a quick spray with cooking spray.
Step 11
Spoon about a tablespoon of the cooled sweet potato mixture into each compartment, then pour the egg mixture over the top, leaving a little room for expansion.
Step 12
Cover the mold tightly with aluminum foil to keep everything snug.
Step 13
Now, let’s move to the multi-functional pressure cooker, like an Instant Pot.
Step 14
Place a trivet inside and add a cup of water.
Step 15
Carefully set the egg bite mold on top of the trivet, then close and lock the lid.
Step 16
Set your cooker to high pressure for 8 minutes, and don’t forget to allow 10 to 15 minutes for the pressure to build up.
Step 17
Once the timer goes off, use the natural release method for 5 minutes, then switch to quick release for the remaining pressure, which should take about 5 minutes more.
Step 18
When you unlock and remove the lid, you’ll be greeted with perfectly fluffy Sweet Potato Egg Bites, ready to be enjoyed! These delightful bites are not just a treat for your taste buds; they’re also a fantastic way to start your day or enjoy as a snack.
Step 19
Enjoy every bite!.
