Bacon & Eggs in Toast Cups

Bacon & Eggs in Toast Cups

(note: Portions are based on how many you wish to make, this recipe makes 6, change it based on how  many you want to make)

  • 6 slices of bread
  • 6 slices of bacon
  • 6 eggs
  • 1/2 cup of shredded cheese
  • salt & pepper

    1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray muffin pan with butter non-stick spray.
    2. Using a cookie cutter, cut circles out of bread slices about 3 inches in diameter. (I confess I do not have a cookie cutter so I use the lid to my tub of orzo pasta and just cut around the edges ;D)
    3. Take bread circles and press them into the muffin pan, set aside.
    4. Heat a large skillet on medium-high. Cook bacon on the skillet until partially cooked but still pliable, about 3 minutes.
    5. Shape bacon strips into the toast cups, fill with 1 Tbs of shredded cheese. Place in the oven for 5 minutes, allowing the bacon to toast just a little more. Remove from oven.
    6. Crack your egg and separate out most of the egg white. Drop eggs into the cups, sprinkle with salt & pepper to taste. Place back in the oven and cook until white begins to set, about another 8 – 10 minutes.  The yolk should be creamy.
    7. Remove from oven when done and pop out using a spoon, serve warm.
