Ingredients

Ingredient Checklist

3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

8 slices white or whole-wheat sandwich bread

6 slices bacon

6 large eggs

Coarse salt and ground pepper

      Cook's Notes

Standard muffin pans come in 6- or 12-cup size; if baking 6 items in a 12-cup pan, leave empty space in between. Nonstick pans are nice but not essential. Beware of very thin pans, which often lead to burning. Place pans on a baking sheet to make them easier to get in and out of the oven.

      Variations

Try cooked, crumbled sausage in place of bacon or make a vegetarian version with sauteed spinach. Dress things up with a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese.

Ingredients

3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
8 slices white or whole-wheat sandwich bread
6 slices bacon
6 large eggs
Coarse salt and ground pepper

Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly butter 6 standard muffin cups. With a rolling pin, flatten bread slices slightly and, with a 4 1/4-inch cookie cutter, cut into 8 rounds. Cut each round in half, then press 2 halves into each muffin cup, overlapping slightly and making sure bread comes up to edge of cup. Use extra bread to patch any gaps. Brush bread with remaining butter.

In a large skillet, cook bacon over medium, until almost crisp, 4 minutes, flipping once. (It will continue to cook in the oven.) Lay 1 bacon slice in each bread cup and crack an egg over each. Season with salt and pepper. Bake until egg whites are just set, 20 to 25 minutes. Run a small knife around cups to loosen toasts. Serve immediately.

                I baked 3 hash brown patties alongside the muffin cups. The baking time and temp are the same. Crumble the patties over the top of the egg cups and sprinkle shredded cheese on top. Residual heat will melt the cheese or you could return it to oven just long enough to melt the cheese.

                Is the size of the cookie cutter diameter or circumference?
                I will probably make this again but as suggested add other seasoning. Green onions or garlic.
                My grandson enjoyed them !
                Quick and simple to make.

                Simply amazing! So easy and guests always LOVE it! When I make these, I serve half of them with melted cheese - Basically I grate my favorite cheese on the cracked egg before putting them in the oven. I have used Swiss, cheddar and gruyere so far. Another yummy variation is using maple bacon instead of regular bacon. This adds a little maple smokiness and touch of sweet. A real crowd-pleasing dish

                Super fun and easy to make! I used wheat bread, but I would definitely try it with white next time. Also, instead of brushing the bread with butter, I may try to brush it with leftover bacon grease to give the bread more flavor. Definitely a keeper!

                I saw this recipe about 3 days ago on a recipe search. I wanted to make it. I am so tired of eating the same things over and over for breakfast.  I told my 10 year old I had a surprise for her and I needed her help with it. She made it with me. Well she did most of the work, all I did was cook the bacon and crack the eggs. She absolutely LOVED it. Now I have a new sunday breakfast..

                I teach a middle school cooking class and we did this recipe yesterday.  I had to change up a couple of things due to the fact we had no bread on hand.  So we used frozen biscuit dough and it worked.  We used a 12 cup tin, pressed the biscuit thin, layered the bacon, cracked the eggs (we used farm fresh eggs) and baked.  They turned out wonderfully.  Thanks Sara!

                Absolutely wonderful! And it's true- the muffin pan is the greatest thing!! Finally something other than muffins. This recipe was easy to make and a new twist on something tried and true- bacon and eggs! For KWCrosby- about the eight slices of bread- Sarah mentioned that you would need that bread to plug the holes at the bottom of the muffin pan since the two sides would not be quite enough to cover the whole surface.  This is definitely an excellent "Everyday Food" recipe!!!  Thanks Sarah :-)

                If you like the yolks runny, remove the yolks before making it so its just egg whites. then fry the yolks like you would a full egg, and break it over top of the cups! yum (:

                Great recipe! However, I added a sun dried tomato and basil goat cheese spread to the bottom and sprinkled some fresh dill on top. Then made a mustard, hot sauce, and maple syrup sauce to top it with. Really adds to the recipe if you want it to be more than "simplistic" tasting.

                This recipe is super-easy, but the finished product looks impressive. The cups have great flavor, and make a great breakfast. Easy enough to do as an everyday dish!

                We love these! I chose to make ours using Texas toast, turkey bacon, sauteed spinach, egg, and shredded cheese. Also, I only made three of them, so I used ramekins instead of a muffin pan.

                Made this for the first time today.  I switched out the bread for biscuits.  Flattened them with a rolling pin to make room.  They were DELISH!  Will definitely make again.  Good suggestion is to cover with a gravy or sauce.

                I make these whenever my children have a sleepover. They are perfect because they are all ready at the same time. I have done them with sausage, shredded cheese and even scrambled the eggs with chives. The options are endless. Thank you Martha!

                I just served these at a baby shower...yum!  I added a small chunk of brie before the egg, then garnished with chives after baking.  Everyone enjoyed them.
