Baked Egg Bread Bowls
Serves 6
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 35 minutes
Ingredients
- 6 French bread rolls
- 6 eggs
- ⅓ cup bacon, diced small
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon tarragon, chopped
- 1 teaspoon chives, chopped
- ¼ cup parmesan cheese, shredded
- Salt & pepper
- ⅓ cup bacon, pre-cooked and diced small (for optional garnish)
Directions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Slice the tops off each dinner roll and carve out enough bread to allow room for one egg. Place rolls on a baking sheet. Reserve tops for later.
- Line the bottom of each bread cup with 1 tablespoon each of chopped bacon, pressing the bacon against the bottom and sides.
- Add 1 egg to each hole.
- Top each bread cup with 1 teaspoon each of heavy cream and a sprinkle of the herbs. Season with salt and pepper, and top with 1 tablespoon each of shredded parmesan cheese.
- Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the eggs have set. At the 20 minute mark, place the bread tops on the sheet pan to brown for the last 5 minutes.
- Garnish with additional cooked diced bacon, if you like. Place the bread tops on rolls and serve.
