HOW TO USE
The use of oil, butter or cooking spray is optional. Your Egg Cups have
a non-stick surface to ensure easy release of Egg Bites once cooked.
Should you nd your Egg Bites do not release easily from the Egg Cups
you may add oil or cooking spray inside each Egg Cup before lling with
egg mixture.
1. Before cooking the non-stick Egg Cups must be “seasoned”. Brush
a small amount of vegetable oil or use a non-stick cooking spray on
the Egg Cups and wipe o any excess with a paper towel. Your Egg
Bite Maker is now ready to use.
2. Fill one Egg Cup with water and pour onto the lower Heating Plate.
3. Prepare your eggs and mix in any ingredients.
4. Fill Egg Cups ¾ full with egg mixture and place Egg Cups on
Heating Plate.
5. Close Lid. NOTE: DO NOT close the locking clip. Your Egg Bites
require space to expand during the cooking process.
6. Plug unit into a 120V AC outlet. The indicator light will illuminate to
indicate the appliance is heating. The indicator light will cycle on
and o with the thermostat. This indicates the unit is maintaining the
correct temperature during use. This is normal. NOTE: Preheating
the unit is not necessary.
7. Check Egg Bites after approximately ve minutes, or when the water
has evaporated from the cooking surface. The Egg Bite Maker may
be opened during the cooking process to check your progress. Egg
Bites are ready within 5-10 minutes, when the desired consistency is
reached. NOTE: Cooking time will vary based on ingredients used
and personal preference.
8. The exterior of the appliance is designed to stay cool to the touch.
Care must be used when opening and closing the lid, as internal
parts, including Egg Cups will be hot and steam may escape when
opening the lid. NOTE: Always use the removal tool provided to
remove the Egg Cups from the Heating Plate to avoid risk of injury or
burns.
HELPFUL HINTS
•Five large eggs will yield approximately two batches in your Egg Bite
Maker.
• If you nd your eggs are sticking in the Egg Cups you may use oil,
butter or cooking spray for easy release once cooking is complete.
•Egg Bites may be prepared and stored in your fridge for a convenient
snack. Simply allow to cool before storing in an airtight container in
your fridge.

A short supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards of becoming
entangled in or tripping over a long cord. Extension cords may be used
if care is exercised in their use. If an extension cord is used, the marked
electrical rating of the detachable power-supply cord or extension cord
should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. If
the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be a
grounded 3-wire cord. The extension cord should be arranged so that
it will not drape over the counter top or table top, where it can be pulled
on by children or tripped over.
