This individual baked eggs recipe is a fuss-free, easy way to bake eggs for any number of people. Each egg is wrapped in a strip of bacon and topped with a square of cheese. These individual eggs take on a very pleasing flavor just by baking instead of cooking them in the more conventional matter — no splatters and you can make 12 or more at once.
Ingredients
- 1 strip bacon
- 1 teaspoon salted butter, melted
- 1 large egg
- ¼ slice cheddar cheese
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Cook bacon in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat until evenly brown, but still flexible. Wrap bacon around the inside of a muffin cup. Place butter (or bacon grease) in the bottom of the muffin cup; crack egg into the muffin cup.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 15 minutes. Place cheese over egg; continue cooking until cheese melts and egg is cooked.
