I’m obsessed with Starbucks Egg Bites but buying them every day (or even every week, for that matter) is out of the question since they are rather expensive for eggs. I don’t have (nor do I want) an Instant Pot or Sous Vide so I had to come up with another way to create a copycat. After a number of attempts to create my own Turkey Sausage & Gruyere Egg Bites, I’ve finally nailed it! They are OOOOOH so good!

Would you make Egg Bites?
Hmmm…I have never tried them at Starbucks. Will have to try this recipe!
You’ll have to try them at Starbucks, too! So you can compare them, of course.
Should I brown the turkey sausage first? I bought the kind that comes in a roll raw.
Yes, ma’am! I buy the pre-cooked stuff.
