Dash mini egg bite cooker review

[@Jakecooks]

I like this egg bite cooker, I only wish the portion cups were a little bit larger. What do you guys think about these Dash units?

[@esthermcgough3995]

My new one came with 1 large silicone cup. Maybe they got this request a lot. I think any silicone cup that fits will work.

[@Jakecooks]

@@esthermcgough3995 Oh interesting, I did not know they ever came out with a newer version so I might have to take a look. I was thinking about looking into some new gadgets to try and review soon.

@@Jakecooks the family one comes with cup twice the size of the small unit.the small unit only uses 400 watts vs the 1200 watts the family.I am curious if u can use the family cup in the small unit

[@Jakecooks]

@@ae5116 good question, I would have to look into that.

[@SuzanneU]

I love mine. I've used it to bake cake batter, make an omelette, fry bacon, toast a sandwich, make egg bites...

[@TheGramaLady]

One of the better egg bite maker videos I’ve seen… & I’ve seen a lot.

[@Jakecooks]

thanks for watching,

[@buttonsf3293]

Not sure what I like best, the actual cooking or your soothing voice :) I recently picked up this same unit (aqua color too) mainly to use as a griddle but am inspired to play with the egg cups now!

[@Jakecooks]

Never had someone compliment on my voice before lol. Especially these older videos where my quality was not that great back then, thanks for stopping by though!

[@marciabrainard9837]

I use mine all day, frozen fish sticks, tater tots, make cakes, brownies, fry sausage, hamburger, hot dogs, grilled cheese, Ruben sandwiches, pancakes , could go on with so many things, do have to open and turn the frozen things , no problem, teaching 7 yr old great grandson how to cook with it…..luv it , works so well , fits right in my mini camper home,,,,

[@Jakecooks]

Very cool, I never thought about some of that in it.

[@nancyosullivan719]

I've been using my egg bite maker for a couple years. I make my breakfast eggs in it. I always buy jumbo eggs, so I crack one on the maker and add enough egg whites to fill the bottom of the maker. It takes 7 or 8 minutes to cook all that. Sometimes, I just use the egg whites. This, with a piece of toast and a fruit make my breakfast. I also use the maker to toast my lunch sandwich with cheese and lunchmeat. Sometimes, I spread butter on the outsides of the bread. This process only takes 3 or 4 minutes, and the cheese is nicely melted. I never tried bacon, but I think it would cut down on the grease spatter around the cooker. I just bought the family size, and I think I will use it in our camper for bacon or sausage patties I buy from ALDI. They are larger than the ones you can buy in the grocery store. Breakfast at deer camp is usually 3 ALDI frozen pancakes (75 seconds in the microwave) 1 sausage and one egg. With the large maker, I can probably do 3 sausage patties and my egg all at the same time. BTW, I bought 4 of the larger egg cups on Amazon. I think the four of those will fit in my family maker.

[@mjs6767]

I’d put the egg base in each and then sprinkle with cheese, tomato, and basil to make sure it was evenly distributed. Might be easier to ensure it’s even. Great video!

[@kbear8899]

I ordered me one today, I love egg bites, Great for the morning time with my smoothie. They look so amazingly tasty, Thanks for sharing.

[@Jakecooks]

You're welcome, and you can even make them ahead and either refrigerate or freeze for even quicker breakfast.

[@Xanderful209]

I bought the same one in red and I love it =]. Might be a bit small for a lot of people but it makes really good egg bites considering Starbucks sells them for like 5 bucks a pop lol ^_^ I’m the only person in my family who eats eggs really so this is baby all mine :)

[@Jakecooks]

Oh indeed, starbucks is crazy for what they charge for it.

[@storiesbyjanet]

Can’t wait till tomorrow when my small bite egg cooker arrives thanks for the help and recipe

[@tinabeane]

I've only made the egg bites once, just a lot of work for those tiny things. I use the hot plate a ton. Use it to cook breakfast patties, hash browns, scramble or sunny side eggs and hamburger patty. Thanks for the cooking tips.

[@Jakecooks]

I completely agree, the bites are cute but yeah a lot of work for very little, I found later that the plate works pretty well also. My daughter asked me one day if it would work for her eggs and now she uses it.

[@bunnybubs757]

My frozen hash browns take forever .. and never come out crispy .. any suggestions ? Also tried the nestles toll house cookie pre made mix … a mushy mess

[@pamelaklemp5615]

I literally watched this video 3 times. Why? Because I was making Egg Bites with my Dash Egg Bites Cooker 😋 as I was watching this! 8 Cups made and enjoyed by my Husband and Me in our Motorcoach. 4 Egg Bite Biscuits and, of course we both shared with our 2 Multipoo pups (😉). A perfect late Brunch!

[@Jakecooks]

That is awesome! I still have both my mini and larger egg bite makers, I should try and do updated videos soon.

[@pamelaklemp5615]

@@Jakecooks That would be AWESOME GREAT. So many Solo Ladies Van Camping these days and still use their mini appliances with their power supplies. They love updated mini recipes to have on hand for their camping trips.

[@JulianaStation]

That look so cute. Perfect for miniature kitchen. I guess I am going to eat all four.

[@Jakecooks]

yeah they are good for smaller kitchens for sure, not for a family meal lol. Also good for those smaller kids just starting out learning to cook. My 8 year old loves these appliances.

[@Beanieweenieable]

Nicely done! Thanks

[@Jakecooks]

thank you for watching

[@ExploreTravelTV]

cute little kitchen gadget. I have so many gadgets I need a bigger kitchen, or storage for it all lol

[@Jakecooks]

lol, oh me too. I actually donate a lot of things these days just because I cannot keep it all.

[@arey256]

What gadgets would you recommend?

[@SuzanneU]

I'll try the flan, but I'll use golden syrup instead of making caramel.

[@fuzzydogpa7348]

I have one of these that I will probably use for grilled sandwiches and mug cakes. I think it takes kinda long for just four eggbites. I would rather use some silicone muffins cups that I have and put the egg batter into those and then into my ninja foodie with the racks and do two layers using the pressure cook feature. I made pumpkin cheesecakes with that feature and they turned out good.

[@davidlangan4902]

Keto Question: Have you tried the flan with granulated sugar and maybe 1/2 and 1/2 to make it more keto friendly? Mini egg bites should be just fine for keto.

[@davidlangan4902]

Whoops... I meant granulated Swerve (no carbs).

[@Jakecooks]

@@davidlangan4902 Never tried it but I wasnt doing much keto stuff back in that time.

[@jennifercline6866]

I just got mine, the littles needed a bit more time(cooked I just like more done) but large one came out well. Still need to play a bit with it. Question, all the recipes say use cottage cheese? Do you know why? Taste or texture? Would any softened cheese work if blended in?? Thanks

[@Jakecooks]

bit of a texture thing, I have used other cheeses, I have blended cream cheese, feta cheese, even shredded cheese and they all work fine. Cottage cheese just makes a smooth consistency and it also contains more protein than most other cheeses per quantity. They also say cottage cheese is recommended for weight loss, they say it helps increase feelings of fullness.

[@jennifercline6866]

@@Jakecooks Thanks for the info, I'd love to lose weight but can add plenty of veggies vs. the cottage cheese for fullness. Or texture, CCheese is gross. Don't do custards or ricotta either for texture reason, took me years to find eggs I'd eat. I have been curious why its the main thing I see added for egg bites. Thanks for responding.

[@Jakecooks]

@@jennifercline6866 Not a problem, I am also working on losing weight, one of the biggest changes I made since moving a couple months ago was cutting out a lot of sugars. Just reducing the sugar from sodas I have lost 16 lbs without changing too much else.

[@cookingwithsherry]

Interesting! I don’t see this as something I’d ever use. And no timer, I’d burn it for sure! But great review !

[@Jakecooks]

lol, like the other mini cookers these are for the select individuals who want something small.

[@cookingwithsherry]

@@Jakecooks I’m sure it’d be perfect for your daughter, but I have a bigger mouth than that lol

[@Jakecooks]

@@cookingwithsherry lol same here, most of these end up going for her to use, I just have to teach her. What's funny is that she actually started watching some of my videos on her tablet. She's always asking "when do I get to be in a video" when I have the space, I hate my kitchen.

[@cookingwithsherry]

@@Jakecooks that’s nice when kids show interest in what you enjoy! I’ll be looking forward to seeing her as mini chef!

[@Jakecooks]

@@cookingwithsherry She definitely needs some training and I should work with her a bit more. I started cooking actual family meals by the time I was 6. My mother still brags about the crab stir fry I decided to make when I was 6 and I was so proud I even took some to my teacher. My daughter though is very clumsy and not very careful and gets hurt easily so I just worry about her using some things.

[@alinanelson1921]

Can you use almond milk

[@Karrio73]

Does it turn off by itself?

[@charlenebriggs7344]

Large silicone cup piece broke off. How can I get a replacement

[@Jakecooks]

I have no clue, try contacting the company...

[@darlenesee2561]

So curious- how did the flan taste?

[@Jakecooks]

pretty good actually, was a little less sweet than what I am used to though using their recipe. I created my own in a different video.

[@Zay14]

Perfect 👌

[@Jakecooks]

thanks for stopping by!

[@apizzathis]

What about rice

[@Jakecooks]

never tried rice in it

[@adamstudort7727]

"it's cute" lol

[@Jakecooks]

lol

[@posys5140]

it makes great grill cheese sandwich

[@Jakecooks]

I can see it, I have the larger version now, I just need to use it some then review it.
