Easy Oven Baked Eggs
Description
This recipe involves preparing eggs in a muffin tin coated with cooking spray, then seasoning each egg with sea salt and black pepper before baking at 350°F (180°C) for about 12 minutes. The baking time can be adjusted for runnier or firmer yolks. Once baked, eggs can be loosened from the tin by running a knife around the edges. This method yields evenly cooked eggs without frying or boiling, convenient for making several servings simultaneously.
The eggs have a firm white and cooked yolk according to preference. Baking provides a gentle heat that maintains moisture without crisping.
These oven-baked eggs can be served for breakfast or as a protein addition to meals. Adding fresh herbs can enhance flavor if desired.
Since ovens vary, monitoring the eggs starting at 10 minutes helps achieve the preferred yolk consistency. Proper seasoning is key to improving flavor for this minimal-ingredient dish.
