How to Cook Eggs in the Oven

This method for cooking eggs in the oven uses a nonstick muffin pan to bake individual eggs seasoned with salt and pepper. Baking at 400°F for 10 to 12 minutes produces eggs with cooked whites and yolks adjusted to your preference. This technique frees stovetop space and allows for making multiple eggs in a uniform way.

Description

The eggs are cracked directly into a greased muffin pan to maintain individual portions and prevent sticking. Salt and black pepper are added before baking at 400°F. The baking time controls the yolk's doneness according to preference, ranging from slightly runny to fully set.

Removing the eggs is easy by running a butter knife around the edges if any sticking occurs. This method offers an alternative to frying or boiling eggs, suitable for preparing larger batches with minimal active attention.
