Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes

Time 35m

Yield Makes 6

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
8 slices white or whole-wheat sandwich bread
6 slices bacon
6 large eggs
Coarse salt and ground pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly butter 6 standard muffin cups. With a rolling pin, flatten bread slices slightly and, with a 4 1/4-inch cookie cutter, cut into 8 rounds. Cut each round in half, then press 2 halves into each muffin cup, overlapping slightly and making sure bread comes up to edge of cup. Use extra bread to patch any gaps. Brush bread with remaining butter.
  • In a large skillet, cook bacon over medium, until almost crisp, 4 minutes, flipping once. (It will continue to cook in the oven.) Lay 1 bacon slice in each bread cup and crack an egg over each. Season with salt and pepper. Bake until egg whites are just set, 20 to 25 minutes. Run a small knife around cups to loosen toasts. Serve immediately.

Yield 12 cups, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

50 -60 tater tots (1 large package in frozen foods section)
12 eggs
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
12 tablespoons shredded cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven 375°F.
  • Let the tater tots you are using to set out for a few minutes to soften so you can squish them.
  • Grease 12-cup muffin pan with vegetable oil.
  • Take 4 or 5 tots place in each cup.
  • Mash with pestle or back of spoon to line the bottom and sides of each cup.
  • Add 1 tablespoon of cheddar cheese.
  • Press down in bottom of the cup with spoon.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Fresh eggs, crispy bacon, and fluffy potatoes are essential.
  • Don't overcook the eggs. The yolks should be slightly runny for a creamy texture.
  • Season the egg mixture generously with salt and pepper. This will help to bring out the flavor of the other ingredients.
  • If you don't have muffin cups, you can use a greased 9x13 inch baking pan instead.
