Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 slices bacon
- 6 pieces large eggs
- 0.5 cups shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your preference)
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley or chives (optional, for garnish)
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 for greasing nonstick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Lightly grease a muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray.
Partially cook the bacon slices in a skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, just until they are starting to render fat but remain flexible (do not cook them until crispy).
Wrap one slice of partially cooked bacon around the inside edge of each muffin cup, forming a circle or 'ring'.
Crack one egg into the center of each bacon ring in the muffin tin.
Sprinkle a little salt and black pepper over each egg for seasoning.
Top each egg with a small amount of shredded cheese.
Place the muffin tin in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still slightly runny. If you prefer firmer yolks, bake for an additional 2-3 minutes.
Carefully remove the muffin tin from the oven and use a small spatula or knife to gently lift each bacon and egg ring out of the tin.
Garnish with chopped parsley or chives, if desired, and serve immediately.
