How to Make Eggs Baked In Whole Tomatoes

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Select 4 large tomatoes. Cut them in half horizontally and gently scoop out the seeds and pulp, creating 4 tomato cups. Reserve the tomato pulp for another use (e.g., in a sauce).
  3. Crack 1 large egg carefully into each tomato cup.
  4. Season each egg with a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  5. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of breadcrumbs evenly over each egg.
  6. Top each egg with 1/2 slice of bacon, arranged in an 'X' pattern.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the eggs are cooked to your desired doneness. The cooking time may vary depending on your oven and the size of the tomatoes.
  8. For extra crispy bacon, broil for 1-2 minutes, keeping a close eye to prevent burning.
