Turkey Bacon, Egg, and Toast Cups

1.26.2012

Breakfast can be my favorite and least favorite meal of the day. During the week, I often loathe it since I eat the same thing everyday and I'm usually in such a rush to get out the house, I don't even remember eating. But on weekends when I have time, its my absolute favorite meal of the day, and I love to take the time to actually prepare something.

I got inspired for these egg cups by model/food blogger and enthusiast Chrissy Teigen's baked eggs in ham cups (recipe here). I love these egg cups because they are not just simple, but a full breakfast meal in one. And because they use turkey bacon, which I absolutely love. 

Ingredients:
-1 slice of bread
-1-2 strips turkey bacon 
-2 eggs

also:
-Cooking Spray
-Cupcake or muffin tin

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees (I even used my toaster oven), and pray your cookie/muffin tin with cooking spray.

Taking your slice of bread, make a circle the size of the well and place it in.

 Next, take a strip of bacon and wrap it around the side of the well. You can either cut it so it fits around just one time, or you can use the whole strip and just tuck it in.

After the bacon is settled, crack the egg over top. Make sure not to get any shell in!


Place the tin in the oven (I used the toaster oven), and bake for about 15 minutes, or until the egg and bacon are to your liking. (Runny yoke, less time, more crisp bacon more time, so on, so forth. )

Remove from the oven, plate and serve.
