- Tomatoes

How to Make Baked Eggs With Variations
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Butter the outside of each bread slice.
- Gently press each bread slice into a greased muffin tin cup, forming a nest.
- If using ham, place a small piece in the bottom of each bread cup.
- Crack one egg into each bread cup.
- For plain baked eggs, skip to step 10.
- Add your desired toppings, such as diced vegetables, herbs, or spices.
- If using sausage, place one small sausage on the side of each egg, sticking up slightly.
- Top each egg with shredded cheese.
- Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the eggs are cooked to your liking. 10 minutes will result in softer yolks, 15 minutes will result in fully cooked yolks.
- Let cool slightly before carefully removing from the muffin tin and serving. Enjoy!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
