WHY HOMEMADE COPYCAT STARBUCKS EGG CUPS
We all get busy sometimes and it is nice to have keto or carnivore options available when away from home, however most of the time, the foods that sound harmless, really can set you back! For example, Starbucks have Sous Vide Egg Bites with Bacon and Gruyere cheese and they sound like a harmless option, however, they contain maltodexerin, corn starch and rice starch!
I have written about maltodexterin many times. It is found in Stevia in the Raw, Splenda, and even some supplements (that is why I have my favorite quality supplements listed HERE)! Sugar has a glycemic index of 52; maltodexterin is 110! So you can see how things like Starbucks Egg Bites can really set you back on your health goals!
HOW TO MAKE COPYCAT STARBUCKS EGG BITES
About a year ago I was gifted a sous vide machine and it sat in my pantry for many months until a male phone client begged me to write a sous vide cookbook. Sous vide is a way of cooking food that provides a PERFECT cook all the way through while infusing flavor.
A few years ago I watched a fantastic movie called Burnt based off this way of cooking. Bradley Cooper is the main character who only has 2 Michelin stars and with the help of his sous chef is able to discover this way of cooking in order to create perfectly cooked food. After the movie I was intrigued with sous vide cooking but I was always afraid of using it because I didn’t like the idea of heating foods in plastic bags. However, one day Craig mentioned he found sous vide bags that were made from a glass material instead of plastic (click HERE to find the glass-based sous vide bags).

HOW TO MAKE COPYCAT STARBUCKS EGG BITES IN THE OVEN
If you do not have a Sous Vide machine but would like to make these delicious egg cups, you can place the mixture into a well greased 6-well muffin tin and bake in the oven at 350 degrees F for 20 minutes or until eggs are set and cooked though.
This recipe for Sous Vide Bacon and Gruyere Egg Bites would be considered Carnivore Level 3. To learn more about Carnivore Levels as well as meal plans for carnivore, check out my new Carnivore ebook!

Copycat Starbucks Egg Bites
Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 4 tablespoons cream cheese
- 1/2 cup Gruyere cheese shredded
- 1/4 teaspoon Redmond Real salt
- 4 pieces cooked bacon or ham
Instructions
- Set your sous vide for 167 degrees. While the Sous vide heats up, place the eggs, cream cheese, 1/2 cup Gruyere cheese and salt into a blender and purée until smooth.
- Grease 4 1/2 pint wide-mouth mason jars with butter or bacon fat. Crumble a piece of bacon into each jar.
- Pour egg mixture into jars. Wipe the rim of the jar to make sure it is clean, then place the lid on the jar. Place jars into the sous vide. Once the sous vide has reached 167 degrees cook eggs for about 35 minutes or until the eggs are completely set.
- Once the eggs are set, you can serve directly from the jars or store extras in the jars for easy breakfast on-the-go!

TESTIMONY OF THE DAY
“Thank you Maria!!! I want you to see what you have done for me personally…I attach photos.
I have been on Otezla for over a year (it does not control the flares and is 3k a month) and makes me nauseous daily. I also take shots every 2 weeks of Dupixent (again no change, never got better, but never got worse 3k)!
I asked you during one of your live videos on your paddle board if Carnivore level 1 would help me. You said yes but I should add a few natural supplements daily. So I did! After 3 weeks..you can see the change!
I see my dermatologist this coming Monday and I’m bringing my bottle of my natural supplements in.“ Susan H.
I have been doing Keto, lost weight and felt really good.
My stomach issues along with digestive issues flared again.
I bought your Carnivore book. Should I do the 30 day beef (hamburger) to kick it off?
As a cleaning aid to reset. I’ve cheated a bit … too many nuts and dairy.
Yes, that would be a good plan to start at level 1. 🙂
I, too, would LOVE a sous vide cookbook! I began using an Anova 3 yrs ago, and LOVE IT! I now have a Joule, as well. I use them all the time! They are essential kitchen tools for me. They make the BEST hardboiled eggs. 194 degrees x 20 minutes! I also found a great recipe on line last year for sous vide egg bites very similar to yours. I love mine with chives added. I make them in 4 oz jelly jars. Thank you for all you do! I am a devoted follower and have EVERY book…even the early self published ones. My fav is the kid one you did. Have recommended it to many people.
Thanks!
Hi Maria! These are wonderful! I bought the Breville sous vide a couple years ago but hadn’t even opened it. Made these and burgers for dinner last night. So easy. Do you have any thoughts on reheating the egg bites? I’m nervous to throw them in the microwave and overcook them but I find that I don’t like them cold.
