Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 55m

Yield 3 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon unsalted butter, at room temperature
4 slices bacon
1/4 cup minced red onion
1/2 cup frozen spinach, thawed, squeezed dry and finely chopped
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/3 cup heavy cream
6 large eggs
1/3 cup coarsely grated Parmesan
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 small baguette, sliced on the a diagonal, toasted and buttered

Steps:

  • 1. Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • 2. Select a roasting pan large enough to accommodate three 11.5 ounce mini-bakers without letting them touch. Coat the bottoms and the sides of the bakers with the butter. Bring 4 to 5 quarts of water to a boil.
  • 3. Cook the bacon in a small skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a plate lined with a paper towel to drain, then crumble. Add the onions to the skillet and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the spinach and nutmeg and cook, stirring occasionally, until warmed through, about 1 minute.
  • 4. Divide the cream, bacon and onions evenly among the bakers and crack 2 eggs into each. Sprinkle the tops with the Parmesan and cover with the lids.
  • 5. Place the bakers in a roasting pan and place the pan into the oven. Fill the pan with enough boiling water to come two-thirds up the sides of the bakers. Bake for 10 minutes. Remove the lids from the bakers, and bake for 12 minutes longer, then turn the oven up to broil. Broil until the whites are set but still jiggle a little and the tops start to brown, about 2 minutes longer. Serve with the buttered toast.

4 ounces bacon (4 strips), diced
1 tablespoon snipped fresh chives

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened

BAKED EGGS WITH ONIONS AND CHEESE



Baked Eggs With Onions and Cheese image

Eggs can be baked on a bed of almost anything -- cooked spinach and sliced tomatoes come to mind immediately -- but the trick in every case is to avoid overcooking. The consistency of baked eggs should be like that of fried eggs, with a barely cooked white and a soft, runny yolk.

Provided by Mark Bittman

Categories     breakfast, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 tablespoons butter or olive oil
4 cups sliced onions
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 cups coarse bread crumbs
1 cup grated Gruyere or Cantal cheese
1/2 cup grated Parmesan
8 eggs

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Put butter or oil in large, ovenproof skillet, and set over medium-high heat. Add onions and a liberal sprinkling of salt and pepper, cover skillet and turn heat to medium. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are very soft and tender but not browned, for about 15 minutes.
  • Combine bread crumbs and cheeses, and sprinkle half of this mixture over onions. Use back of spoon to make 8 little nests in the mixture, and crack 1 egg into each. Season with salt and pepper, and distribute remaining bread crumbs and cheese mixture over top.
  • Bake for 5 minutes, or until eggs are barely set. Turn on broiler, and run skillet under it to brown top for a minute or so, being careful not to overcook the eggs. Serve hot or at room temperature.
