Bacon and egg muffins
Background
At the weekend an English breakfast can be very comforting for brunch, but it takes a lot of effort and many pans to make it properly. Egg muffins can be just as satisfying and require much less work and washing up. Β These bacon and egg muffins only need a muffin tin and a small bowl for whisking the eggs. Instead of tomatoes, you van add other veggies such as grilled pepper, green peas, herbs, spinach etc. Serve them warm with toast & salad or let them cool and take them to a picnic/trip.
Ingredients
- 5 eggs
- 6 slices of streaky bacon (smoked)
- Β½ cup Grated cheese (optional)
- Handful of cherry tomatoes, halved
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200Β°C.
- Lightly grease a muffin tin or put 6 silicon muffin cases on a baking tray.
- Line each hole with a slice of bacon, then put a couple of tomatoes in the middle.
- Bake in the oven for 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile lightly whisk the eggs. Add most of the grated cheese, if used.
- Take the tin out of the oven and divide the egg mixture between the cups.
- Scatter some cheese on top, season with pepper and put one tomato piece on top of each.
- Turn down the oven temperature to 180C and bake the muffins for 20-25 minutes until golden. (You can brown the top with a blow torch or under the grill, if preferred.)
- Serve immediately or let them cool.
