    Potatoes, eggs, cheese… need I say more? These Omelet and Potato Breakfast Bites are like a classic breakfast casserole, but in a fun, bite-sized form. Think crispy tater tots topped with fluffy eggs, melty cheese, and your favorite toppings. Perfect for busy mornings or a weekend brunch spread.

    And the best part? You can totally customize them. Want bacon instead of ham? Go for it. Prefer extra veggies? Toss them in. These little bites are easy to whip up, freezer-friendly, and seriously tasty. Let’s get started.

    Omelet and Potato Breakfast Bites

    What to Expect

    Quick Details

    • Prep Time: 10 minutes
    • Cook Time: 30 minutes
    • Total Time: 40 minutes

    Servings

    12 bites. Great for feeding 4–6 people. Cooking for one? Freeze the extras for later.

    Skill Level

    Beginner. If you know how to crack an egg, you’re good to go.

    What You’ll Need

    • Muffin tin (12 cups)
    • Mixing bowl
    • Whisk (or just a fork)
    • Microwave-safe bowl (for those frozen tots)
    • Small glass or cup (to flatten the tots)

    Don’t have a muffin tin? No worries—use ramekins or a small baking dish for a casserole version.

    Omelet and Potato Breakfast Bites Recipe

    The Ingredients

    Here’s What You’ll Need:

    1. 36 frozen tater tots (3 per muffin cup)
    2. 8 large eggs
    3. ¼ cup milk
    4. ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese (plus more for topping)
    5. ½ cup diced ham (cooked)
    6. ½ cup diced bell peppers (red and green)
    7. Salt and pepper to taste

    Switch It Up

    • No tater tots? Shredded potatoes or hash brown patties work too.
    • Not a fan of ham? Use sausage, bacon, or turkey. Even smoked salmon for something fancy.
    • Dairy-free? Swap the milk and cheese for plant-based options.

    Pro Tip: Shred your own cheese. It melts better than pre-shredded.

    How to Make Them

    How to Make Omelet and Potato Breakfast Bites

    Step 1: Prep Your Oven and Pan

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease your muffin tin well—cooking spray or butter works fine. Want easy cleanup? Use silicone muffin liners.

    Step 2: The Potato Base

    • Microwave the frozen tater tots for 2–3 minutes, just until they soften.
    • Pop three tots into each muffin cup. Use a small glass or measuring cup to press them into a crust.
    • Bake the crusts for 10 minutes until crisp. Want them extra crunchy? Add 5 more minutes.

    Step 3: Mix the Eggs

    Whisk the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl. Done? Great—set it aside. Then dice your ham and bell peppers into small bites.

    Step 4: Put It All Together

    • Take the muffin tin out of the oven and lower the temp to 350°F (175°C).
    • Sprinkle ham and bell peppers over each potato crust.
    • Pour the egg mixture into each cup, leaving just a little room at the top.
    • Add a pinch of shredded cheese to each.

    Step 5: Bake

    Bake for about 20 minutes at 350°F, or until the eggs are set. Not sure if they’re done? Use a toothpick—it should come out clean.

    Step 6: Cool and Serve

    Let the bites cool for 5 minutes before digging in. If they stick, gently run a butter knife around the edges to loosen them.

    Serve Omelet and Potato Breakfast Bites

    Make Them Your Own

    Dietary Tweaks

    • Gluten-free? These are naturally gluten-free if your tater tots are, too.
    • Vegetarian? Skip the meat or replace it with extra veggies like spinach or mushrooms.
    • Low-carb? Use cauliflower rice instead of tater tots for the crust.

    Add Some Heat

    Love spice? Add diced jalapeños or sprinkle chili flakes on top.

    Fancy It Up

    Hosting brunch? Swap ham for smoked salmon, and throw in fresh herbs like dill or chives.

    How to Store and Reheat

    How to Store Omelet and Potato Breakfast Bites

    Leftovers? No Problem

    • Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
    • Freeze for longer storage—just lay them flat on a baking sheet to freeze before transferring to a bag.

    Reheating Tips

    • Microwave: 30 seconds per bite.
    • Oven: Bake at 350°F for 5–7 minutes for that fresh-out-of-the-oven taste.

    Why They’re a Keeper

    These Omelet and Potato Breakfast Bites are easy, delicious, and endlessly customizable. Whether you’re meal-prepping for the week or feeding a crowd, they’re a simple way to elevate your breakfast without breaking a sweat. So grab those tater tots and get cooking—you’ll thank me later.

    Let me know if you’d like to tweak it further!

    • Author: Arif-
    • Prep Time: 10 minutes
    • Cook Time: 30 minutes
    • Total Time: 40 minutes
    • Yield: 12 bites (4–6 people) 1x
    • Category: Breakfast
    • Cuisine: American

    Ingredients

    Scale
    • 36 frozen tater tots (3 per muffin cup)
    • 8 large eggs
    • ¼ cup milk
    • ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese (plus extra for topping)
    • ½ cup diced ham (pre-cooked)
    • ½ cup diced bell peppers (red and green)
    • Salt and pepper to taste

    Instructions

    1. Preheat Oven: Heat oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin generously with cooking spray or butter.
    2. Prepare Tater Tot Base: Microwave tater tots for 2–3 minutes to thaw. Place three in each muffin cup and press down firmly with a small glass to form a crust. Bake for 10 minutes until slightly crispy.
    3. Mix Egg Filling: In a bowl, whisk eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until combined. Dice ham and bell peppers.
    4. Assemble Bites: Reduce oven temperature to 350°F (175°C). Sprinkle ham and peppers over the baked tater tot crusts. Pour egg mixture into each cup, filling almost to the top. Sprinkle cheese over each bite.
    5. Bake: Bake at 350°F for about 20 minutes or until eggs are set and slightly puffed. Let cool for 5 minutes before removing from the pan using a butter knife to loosen edges.

    Notes

    Serving Suggestions:

    • Pair with fresh fruit, avocado slices, or a dollop of salsa for a complete breakfast.

    Tips & Tricks:

    • Use silicone muffin liners or cooking spray with flour to prevent sticking.
    • For extra-crispy crusts, bake tater tots an additional 5 minutes before adding toppings.

    Storage & Reheating:

    • Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
    • Freeze cooled bites on a baking sheet, then transfer to a freezer-safe bag. Reheat in the microwave (1–2 minutes) or oven (350°F for 5–7 minutes).
