How to Make Portobello Eggs

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  3. Select one large portobello mushroom cap (about 4-5 inches in diameter). Remove the stem and gently clean the cap with a damp cloth.
  4. Place the mushroom cap gill-side up on the prepared baking sheet.
  5. Drizzle the mushroom cap with 1 teaspoon olive oil.
  6. Season generously with 1/4 teaspoon dried herbs (Italian mix recommended), a pinch of salt, and a pinch of freshly ground black pepper.
  7. Carefully crack one large egg directly into the cup of the mushroom cap.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the egg white is completely set and the yolk is cooked to your desired consistency.
  9. Carefully remove from the oven and serve immediately. Optional: Top with shredded cheese (cheddar, parmesan, or Gruyere are excellent choices) during the last 2 minutes of baking.
