How to Make Baked Eggs On A Bed Of Potatoes With Bacon

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  3. Arrange 4-6 slices of bacon on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until crispy. Remove from oven and set aside on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
  4. While the bacon is baking, heat 1 ½ cups of leftover cheesy mashed potatoes in the microwave for 1-2 minutes, or until warmed through.
  5. Spread the mashed potatoes evenly onto the baking sheet, leaving a little space between each portion.
  6. Using the back of a spoon, create 4-6 small wells in the mashed potatoes.
  7. Crack one egg gently into each well.
  8. Season eggs generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  9. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the yolks are cooked to your desired consistency.
  10. Carefully remove the baking sheet from the oven.
  11. Top each baked egg with 1-2 slices of crispy bacon.
  12. Serve immediately and enjoy!
