PARTS & FEATURES
BEFORE USING YOUR DELUXE EGG BITE MAKER
- Remove all packaging materials.
- Check that the Deluxe Egg Bite Maker has no visible damage and that no parts are missing.
- Before using the appliance for the first time or before using it after prolonged storage, wash and dry the appliance and any accompanying accessories.
- Be sure to remove any dust from the Heating Plate and Silicone Cups.
Using Your Deluxe Egg Bite Maker
- Set the Deluxe Egg Bite Maker on a stable, flat, heat-resistant surface (photo A). Note: You do not need to preheat your Deluxe Egg Bite Maker, but doing so can decrease the cooking time.
- Fill one of the small Silicone Cups with water, and pour it onto the Heating Plate (photo B). The water will heat and become steam, which will allow the egg bites to cook evenly and maintain a soft, creamy texture.
- Whisk your egg together with the ingredients in a small bowl (photo C). See the Recipe Guide on page 21 for ideas. The Large Silicone Cup holds about 2 large eggs, and the four smaller Silicone Cups hold about 2 large eggs.
- Place the Large Silicone Cup into the water on the Heating Plate (photo D).
- Fill the Large Silicone Cup ¾ of the way with egg mixture and ingredients (photo E). This will allow the egg bites to expand as they cook.
- Plug the Deluxe Egg Bite Maker in and close the lid (photo F). The blue Indicator Light on the lid of the Deluxe Egg Bite Maker will illuminate, indicating the Deluxe Egg Bite Maker is on and heating. When the Deluxe Egg Bite Maker reaches maximum temperature, the Indicator Light will turn off, but this does not mean the Deluxe Egg Bite Maker has turned off.
- Allow the egg to cook for approximately 10-12 minutes, or until the water on the Heating Plate has completely evaporated. You can open the Deluxe Egg Bite Maker to check your progress (photo G).
- When eggs are done, unplug the Deluxe Egg Bite Maker to turn it off. Remove the Large Silicone Cup (photo H) and turn it upside down to allow the egg to release. If the egg is stuck, squeeze the Large Silicone Cup gently to release. Do not use force, as this may break or deform the egg.
Or Make Egg Bites!
Egg Bites are delicious as a snack or breakfast on the go! To make egg bites, refer to the instructions on pages 11-14, but switch out the Large Silicone Cup for the four small Silicone Cups (shown below).
Tips & Tricks
- Be sure not to overfill the Silicone Cups, as this may cause them to spill onto the Heating Plate once the eggs begin cooking. Eggs expand while cooking, so it’s best to fill the Silicone Cups only ¾ full.
Don’t just limit yourself to eggs; try using the Deluxe Egg Bite Maker to prepare cheesecake bites, custard, or other sweet treats!
Cooking spray, oil, and butter are not necessary to prevent sticking in the Silicone Cups. However, a thin coating can help ensure your egg bites release cleanly.
- Plugging in the Deluxe Egg Bite Maker to preheat for 2-3 minutes before adding water to the Heating Plate will significantly increase the speed at which the water heats.
Cleaning & Maintenance
- Before cleaning, remove the plug from the wall socket and let the Deluxe Egg Bite Maker cool down completely.
- Thoroughly clean the Deluxe Egg Bite Maker after every use.
- Do not clean the Heating Plate with metal kitchen utensils or abrasive cleaning materials. Using these may damage the Heating Plate’s coating.
- To clean the exterior of the Deluxe Egg Bite Maker, wipe it down with water, dish soap, and a non-abrasive sponge or soft cloth.
- NOTE: DO NOT submerge the Deluxe Egg Bite Maker in water.
- Clean the Silicone Cups with a soft cleaning brush to remove any food residue.
- Make sure that the Deluxe Egg Bite Maker is unplugged and all parts are clean and dry before storing.

- Fill each Silicone Cup with cheesecake mixture to just below the rim. Tap the filled cup on the counter to eliminate air bubbles.
- Measure about 1 tablespoon of crumbs, press until they cling together, then place onto the top of the filled cup. Repeat to fully cover the cream cheese mixture in all the cups.
