Bacon, Egg and Cheese Cups

Think of this as a bacon, egg and cheese sandwich, but in bite-sized muffin form.

Supplies

  • 12 slices center-cut bacon
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
  • Salt and pepper
  • 4 slices bread
  • Chopped green onion, to taste

Steps

  1. Partially cook bacon on a baking rack at 375°F for about 6-8 minutes to render some of the fat. Remove from oven and set aside.
  2. In bowl, combine eggs, cheese, salt and pepper.
  3. On a flat surface, roll out bread slices to flatten, and cut into quarters.
  4. Lightly grease a muffin tin with cooking spray. Line the wells with 1 bacon slice each. Add the flattened bread slices and press into the well to form cups. Fill with the egg and cheese mixture. Bake at 375°F for about 15-20 minutes, or until the bacon is crispy and the eggs are set.
  5. Garnish with chopped green onion.
