DASH Deluxe Sous Vide Style Egg Bite Maker with Silicone Molds for Breakfast Sandwiches, Healthy Snacks or Desserts, Keto & Paleo Friendly, (1 large, 4 mini) - Black

I am a Starbucks egg bites lover, and I've never been able to duplicate the soft, creamy recipe at home using my Instant Pot or oven. I wanted to give this product a try since supposedly "sous vide" is what gives that texture!Overall, this product is great. It comes with some recipes, but I found I had to tweak them a little to get the consistency and taste I was looking for, but I think I got it! I can now make them to taste almost identical to Starbucks, with that same consistency (tips at the end of this review if that's what you're looking for too).It comes with a larger silicone cup and 4 minis. The minis are SMALL...much smaller than I expected. Because of that, if you are using 4 eggs like their recipes call for, you will be making quite a few batches. But no big deal. There is no on/off switch on this. You plug it in, and it's on.The one thing I wish it had was an easier way to take the hot silicone cups out when they are finished. I don't want to leave them on the cooker while it cools off, as it will just make the eggs cook more, so I needed to pinch the tiny handles to pick them up. It's hot! Other than that, I really like this little machine. I used cooking spray in the cups as suggested, and the egg bites fell right out with ease. So far I have not used it for anything besides egg bites, but the instruction manual that comes with it gives other suggestions, like cheesecake. They would be TINY Cheesecake bites if you use the small cups!If you are looking for the consistency and taste of Starbucks egg bites, here's what I did to get it:- I TRIPLED the amount of cottage cheese suggested in their recipe book.- I didn't cook them as long as suggested. I pre-heated the machine and maybe cooked them for 5-6 minutes, instead of 10 minutes. (The machine directions say that if you pre-heat, it cuts down on your cooking time, but it doesn't say by how much, so it's a guessing game of trial and error)Overall, a great little machine that is small enough that it doesn't take up much room in my already cramped kitchen and allows me to save money by not going to Starbucks as often!

I really enjoy the egg bites from Starbucks and I have made egg bites at home in my instant pot. The problem was it’s usually just me in the mornings and the instant pot made a lot more than I could really eat within a couple of days. This thing works great! The recipes are super easy and super helpful. Clean up is really easy the silicone cups really don’t need much of a cooking spray. The egg bites dropped right out. I’m really excited to try some of the dessert recipes that were included. I would recommend this especially to a household that’s just one or two people. The only feature I wish it had was either a timer or some kind of alarm that would go off to tell you when they’re done. You just have to set a timer and keep an eye on them.

I just began using this little appliance and absolutely love it!The first thing I made was a grilled cheese sandwich, which came out perfect - melted cheese on the inside and toasted bread on the outside. Yummy! Per the instructions, I used nonstick cooking spray on both surfaces, which made cleanup a breeze.My second venture was egg bites, which came out fantastic. As other folks have mentioned, the cups are TINY. However, the egg bites are packed with protein and a little goes a long way. I used 3 eggs and added tomatoes, fresh herbs and grated cheese. The end result was 12 little egg bites that I'm storing in the fridge.Per the instructions, fill up each cup about 75% since the eggs will expand as they cook. Similarly, Dash recommends spraying the silicone cups with some cooking spray, which makes them pop out with zero effort. Cleanup for the egg bite function is also fast and easy.The appliance is small, cute and easy to use. It's perfect for feeding 1-2 people. If you need a higher capacity device, Dash makes a larger model that may be better suited for your needs.The only reason why I"m deducting a star is the lack of an on/off switch. Why they didn't include one boggles the mind.Suggestion: READ THE INSTRUCTIONS to make sure you're using it properly for each application.

I LOVE DASH products! This mini egg bite maker makes the most delicious egg bites. They come out so creamy and fluffy. I like it so much that I just purchased 2 more to be able to make them for a group of friends. It is cheaper at the time I'm writing this to buy 2 minis than it was to buy the larger version. The possibilities are endless with this thing. So far I have tried some taco style bites served with salsa, and some ham, Swiss, and tomato bites. Eggs go a long way when making these especially when you add additional mix ins. For me one egg makes about 6 egg bites so far. They are surprisingly filling and being they don't require any butter they are pretty low in calories. I have made egg bites in a muffin pan before, but these come out far superior in taste and texture. DASH makes products that have come in so handy in my kitchen. I have this machine as well as the egg boiler/cooker, the waffle maker, and the rice cooker. I have also purchased these products as gifts for others, and I have rarely liked a product enough to gift it before I found DASH. And I know it might sound like it, but the company has never paid or offered me anything for a review this is just my honest experience with this companies products.
