Best 5 Bacon Egg And Cheese Toast Cups Recipes

BACON, EGG, AND TOAST CUPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly butter 6 standard muffin cups. With a rolling pin, flatten bread slices slightly and, with a 4 1/4-inch cookie cutter, cut into 8 rounds. Cut each round in half, then press 2 halves into each muffin cup, overlapping slightly and making sure bread comes up to edge of cup. Use extra bread to patch any gaps. Brush bread with remaining butter.
• In a large skillet, cook bacon over medium, until almost crisp, 4 minutes, flipping once. (It will continue to cook in the oven.) Lay 1 bacon slice in each bread cup and crack an egg over each. Season with salt and pepper. Bake until egg whites are just set, 20 to 25 minutes. Run a small knife around cups to loosen toasts. Serve immediately.

BACON, EGG AND CHEESE TOAST CUPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Divide the bacon slices among 2 large skillets. Cook in a single layer over medium-low heat, flipping once and draining the rendered fat as needed, until the bacon is almost fully cooked but still pliable enough to bend, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain the bacon on a paper towel-lined plate and set aside.
• Unfold the puff pastry sheets onto a lightly floured work surface. Lightly roll each sheet with a rolling pin to seal together any folds..
• Using a sharp knife, cut each sheet into 9 equal squares. Place 1 puff pastry square in each cup of a 12-cup muffin pan, pressing it firmly into the bottom and sides and letting the edges hang over the cup. (Reserve and freeze the 6 leftover squares for another use.)
• Place 1 of the bacon strips in each puff pastry cup, letting the ends stick out.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs with the milk and a pinch each of salt and pepper.
• Divide the cheese among the puff pastry cups, followed by the egg mixture.
• Bake until the puff pastry is golden brown and the eggs are cooked through, 18 to 22 minutes. Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes then loosen the pastry cups around the edges with a paring or butter knife.
• Sprinkle the egg cups with the chives and serve immediately.

BACON, EGG AND CHEESE TOAST CUPS

Steps:

• Divide the bacon slices between two large sauté pans set over medium-low heat and cook the bacon, draining the grease as needed, until it is almost fully cooked but still pliable enough to bend. Set the bacon aside.
• Preheat the oven to 375°F.
• Lightly flour your work surface then unfold each of the puff pastry sheets onto your work surface. Using a rolling pin, roll each sheet to seal together any creases.
• Using a sharp knife, cut each sheet of puff pastry into nine squares. Add a puff pastry square to each muffin tin cup, pressing it firmly into the bottom and sides so that the edges hang over the sides of each cup. (You will have six extra squares, which can be re-frozen or used to make quick and easy Puff Pastry Cookies.)
• Place a strip of cooked bacon inside each cup so that the ends stick out of the cups.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs with the milk and a pinch of salt and pepper.
• Divide the cheese among the muffin tin cups then ladle the egg mixture into each muffin tin cup.
• Bake the eggs for 18 to 22 minutes until the puff pastry is golden brown and the eggs are cooked through. Remove the egg cups from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes before using a knife to loosen them around the edges.
• Sprinkle the egg cups with the chopped chives and serve immediately.

BACON, EGG AND CHEESE TOAST BOWLS

Steps:

• Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F.
• Roll each piece of bread to thinly flatten.
• Microwave the butter with a large pinch of salt in a small microwave-safe bowl until melted, about 1 minute. Brush both sides of each slice of bread with the butter.
• Make the toast bowls: Gently press a slice of bread inside a cup of a 12-cup muffin tin. The bottom and sides of the bread should be flush against the cup; pleat the sides of the bread as needed to fit. Repeat with the remaining bread, filling every other muffin cup so that the bread bowls do not touch. Bake, rotating about halfway through, until lightly browned and crispy in spots, 12 to 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk together the milk, eggs, a large pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl.
• Put the bacon in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the bacon is crispy, 12 to 15 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate. Keep the bacon drippings in the skillet and adjust the heat to low.
• Pour the egg mixture into the skillet. Cook the eggs, stirring and scraping the sides of the skillet as needed, until small curds form and the eggs are just set, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and fold in the cheese until almost completely melted.
• Divide the hot eggs among the toast bowls and top with the crispy bacon. Serve with hot sauce.

BACON & EGG TOAST CUPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Lay 16 slices bacon on prepared baking sheet and place in oven. Cook, turning once, until bacon is lightly crisped, about 12 minutes. Remove from oven and drain on a towel lined plate.
• Line the wells of the muffin tin with remaining 12 slices bacon, pressing the bacon around the sides of the wells. Gently fold the corners of each slice of bread together and place the bread into the tin. Press the bread against the sides to make a well. Bake for 15 minutes.
• Remove muffin tin from oven, place a slice of bacon in each piece of bread and break an egg on top. Sprinkle over about 1 teaspoon grated parmesan cheese and season with salt and pepper. Bake until eggs are set, about 13-15 minutes.
• To finish, top one row of toast cups with a dollop of pesto and a sprinkle of parmesan cheese. Top another row with roasted red pepper and a pinch chili flakes. Top the third row with reserved 4 strips bacon, roughly chopped, and a sprinkle of chives.
