baked eggs: my new favorite

[Guest guest]

I picked up some fresh, free-range eggs from the lady I have bought eggs

from before, she advertised last summer on Craig's List. Her family keeps

chickens on their land (and these are some spoiled chickens!) We've had just

a few warm (almost 50 degrees F) days and already she says her dad has eggs

coming out of his ears. These eggs taste like nothing you've ever had from a

grocery store, they are wonderful.

 

Tonight I baked two of them in a small ramekin with some margarine. I added

salt and some chopped green onions when they were done, and oh my gosh, I

think this is my new favorite egg dish!! Easier than soft-boiled or fried

eggs. If you like runny yolks and have never had baked eggs, throw 1 tbsp of

butter or margarine in a small oven-proof dish, melt it, then crack 2 eggs

into it. Bake at 350 degrees F for about 15 minutes. The whites should be

cooked through but the yolks should still be runny.

My mom used to make me baked eggs by buttering one cup of a muffin pan,

buttering a piece of bread with the crust removed and then using it to line the

muffin cup, then breaking an egg into it and baking it until set.  I loved

having my egg and toast all-in-one, and I still make this now and then when I

need comfort food!

I'm having a group of teenagers and this sounds like a great idea. How long do

you bake it and at what temperature? Thank you.

Hi Diane!

 

I bake them at 350 degrees, for about 10 minutes, but you may want to do a test

run before baking a whole batch of them.

This sounds really good, how long do you bake it?

That has been one of my favorite ways to cook eggs for a long time now....the

recipe is called shirred eggs. I have some special Pyrex dishes that were made

in the 1920's that are just for baking eggs...they are called " Shirred Egg

Dishes " . And, right now, I am getting between 35 to 46 eggs a day from my

hens so we have plenty of eggs to bake!!

We too are over loaded with eggs from our hens and have vegetable omletts for

supper Sunday night.

Thank you! Because of flooding rain the girls will be coming next week, so I

have time to do a test run :>) Hope it is a pretty weekend so that the girls can

be outside. Also the farm across the street has mares ready to foal. Wouldn't

that be great to see!
