Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 slices Bacon
- 1 piece Large egg
- 2 tablespoons Shredded cheese (cheddar or your choice)
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 pinch Black pepper
- 1 as needed Nonstick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly spray the inside of a muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray.
Take 2 slices of bacon and line the inside of one muffin cup, overlapping the slices to form a circular lining. Trim any excess bacon so it fits neatly.
Place the muffin tin on a baking sheet to catch any grease that may spill over while baking.
Bake the bacon-lined cup in the oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the bacon is partially cooked but not crispy.
Carefully remove the muffin tin from the oven. Crack one large egg directly into the bacon-lined cup.
Sprinkle a pinch of salt and black pepper on top of the egg.
Add 2 tablespoons of shredded cheese over the egg, spreading it evenly.
Return the muffin tin to the oven and bake for an additional 7-9 minutes, or until the egg whites are set, the yolk is cooked to your preference, and the cheese is melted.
Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let it cool for 1-2 minutes.
Use a butter knife to gently loosen the edges of the baked bacon, egg, and cheese cup, then carefully lift it out of the muffin tin.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
