For breakfast on a day off. I wanted to come up with an easy to make, one-plate bread breakfast idea. You can make these without a frying pan or a bowl!

The eggs cook fast depending on your oven, so please check on them while they are cooking. I think that these taste best when the eggs are soft-set!
You can also make these in pudding cups! For 4 cups. Recipe by Awatenbo mama

Steps

1

Make 2 cm-deep cuts on all sides of the sliced bread. Butter 4 muffin cups, and press each slice of bread into a cup, folding them so that they are flower shaped.
2

Line each bread cup with a half slice of bacon first. Cut the cheese slices into half, and place in the cups so that it crosses over the bacon.
3

Top with the eggs. If you use very small-size chicken eggs, the white will run out, so break the eggs on a plate first and add to the cups little by little. If you are using quail eggs, you can just break them in.
4

Season with salt and pepper, and bake for 15 to 20 minutes in a 160°C oven. Please check on how the eggs are cooking. Cook for a short time only if using quail eggs!
5

Optionally add some ketchup and mayonnaise mixed together in equal amounts. If you eat this while breaking up the yolk, it's sooo good!
6

You can also bake the bread cups without the eggs, and fill with potato salad. Fill the cups with potato salad using a piping bag, then garnish with cheese and bacon.
