1 cup (5 ounces) all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder

FEATHER BED EGGS RECIPE

Provided by Tufgrlz

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 slices of thick-cut bread
1 1/2 cups grated cheese (white cheddar or 3-cheese)
1 1/2 cups whole milk
6 large eggs
butter
pepper
oregano

Steps:

  • Butter 6 small ramekins. Butter one side of bread, and place a single slice with buttered side up in each ramekin. Generously pepper each slice of bread and sprinkle with 1/4 cup of cheese. Beat milk with eggs and add oregano to taste. Pour over the cheese and bread in the ramekins. Cover and refrigerate overnight. In the morning uncover and place in a cold oven. Set to 350 degrees and bake for 30-40 minutes or until puffed and golden brown. Remove from baking disk and serve immediately. Variations: instead of individual ramekins, arrange bread in a buttered 9 x 13 inch baking dish. Add diced ham or sausage, onion, green pepper, or mushrooms to taste. Place these ingredients on top of bread, but under cheese, prior to covering with egg mixture.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest eggs possible. Fresh eggs will have a thicker, more flavorful yolk that will hold its shape better when cooked.
  • Use a non-stick skillet. This will help to prevent the eggs from sticking and breaking.
  • Heat the butter or oil over medium heat. You don't want the fat to be too hot, or the eggs will cook too quickly and become tough.
  • Cook the eggs slowly and gently. Don't stir them constantly, or they will break up. Just let them cook undisturbed for a few minutes, until the edges start to set.
  • Season the eggs with salt and pepper to taste. You can also add other seasonings, such as herbs, spices, or cheese.
  • Serve the eggs immediately. They are best when they are hot and fresh out of the skillet.

Conclusion:

Feather bed eggs are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or brunch dish. They are perfect for a lazy weekend morning or a special occasion. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a dish that is both flavorful and visually appealing. So next time you're looking for a new egg recipe to try, give feather bed eggs a try. You won't be disappointed.
