Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 large Eggs
- 4 cups Ice
- 8 cups Water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
Place each large egg into the individual cups of a muffin tin. This helps prevent the eggs from rolling around during baking.
Put the muffin tin in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, depending on how soft or hard you prefer the yolks. For fully hard-cooked eggs, aim for 30 minutes.
While the eggs are baking, prepare an ice bath by filling a large bowl with 8 cups of cold water and 4 cups of ice.
Once the eggs are done baking, carefully remove the muffin tin from the oven using oven mitts.
Transfer the eggs immediately to the ice bath using tongs or a spoon. Let them sit in the ice bath for at least 10 minutes to stop the cooking process and make peeling easier.
After cooling, peel the eggs or store them in the refrigerator for up to one week.
