Spinach Feta Egg Bites

January 19, 2026

Cuisine: American

These spinach feta egg bites are made in ramekins for a protein-packed breakfast. I use a combination of whole eggs and egg whites to keep the texture airy and light.

The garlic and onion powder add flavor and the feta provides a salty, tangy element that pairs well with the spinach.

I like to serve these directly from the ramekin alongside an arugula salad with lemon-maple dressing.

If you want to swap out the spinach, you can use 60 g of grated zucchini instead. Just be sure to squeeze the zucchini in a paper towel first to remove all water, otherwise the egg bites will become soggy in the bottom of the ramekin.

    Equipment

    • Ramekin
    • Air Fryer

    Instructions

    1. Preheat your air fryer to 325°F on the roast setting. Generously coat two standard 4-6 oz ramekins with olive oil, making sure to cover the bottom and sides completely. This prevents the eggs from sticking.
    2. In a small bowl, whisk the 100 g of whole eggs, 50 g of egg whites, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper until frothy.
    3. Divide the 40 g of chopped spinach and 15 g of feta equally between the two ramekins.
    4. Pour the egg mixture over the spinach and feta.
    5. Place the ramekins in the air fryer basket. Air fry at 325°F for 13 minutes, or until an internal thermometer reads 160°F.
    6. Let them cool for 2 minutes. You can eat them directly from the ramekin or run a butter knife around the edge to gently release them onto your arugula salad.
