- Bake 35 minutes or until golden brown and edges are crispy.
- While nests are baking, combine the egg whites with remaining ingredients in a medium bowl.
- Remove nests from the oven when golden brown.
- Fill each cup with about 3 tbsp of egg mixture. Return to the oven and bake an additional 17-20 minutes or until eggs are fully cooked.
