How to Cook Bacon Egg Cups

Step 1 of 8

I use precooked bacon. If you use uncooked bacon you may need to adjust cooking time.

Step 2 of 8

Spray muffin tins with nonstick cooking spray. (Pro-tip: place muffin tins on the open door of your dishwasher and spray. Spray will wash away.) Cut bacon in 2 inch pieces to line bottoms of cups.

Step 3 of 8

Wrap a whole bacon slice inside each cup.

Step 4 of 8

Beat eggs with a splash of half&half and salt&pepper in a pourable bowl/cup. Fill each cup. (1 muffin cup should hold 1 egg. 12 muffin cups = 12 eggs.)

Step 5 of 8

Top with cheese of choice. Here I used (from top) American cheese, a shredded Mexican blend, Swiss, and pepper jack cheese.

Step 6 of 8

Cook for 35 minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit. (Pro-tip: google Celsius if needed)

Step 7 of 8

Admire your hard work.

Step 8 of 8

Enjoy.

Is it solid on the sides, from the egg or baccon?

How long do they last? I mean, if I decide to make loads at once (cause I'm pretty lazy 😊) can I freeze them?

It's cream, basically. Half light cream, half milk. For this recipe you can use cream, milk, water or no filler at all.
