Steps:
- 1. Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 350°F.
- 2. Select a roasting pan large enough to accommodate three 11.5 ounce mini-bakers without letting them touch. Coat the bottoms and the sides of the bakers with the butter. Bring 4 to 5 quarts of water to a boil.
- 3. Cook the bacon in a small skillet over medium heat until crisp, about 8 minutes. Transfer to a plate lined with a paper towel to drain, then crumble. Add the onions to the skillet and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the spinach and nutmeg and cook, stirring occasionally, until warmed through, about 1 minute.
- 4. Divide the cream, bacon and onions evenly among the bakers and crack 2 eggs into each. Sprinkle the tops with the Parmesan and cover with the lids.
- 5. Place the bakers in a roasting pan and place the pan into the oven. Fill the pan with enough boiling water to come two-thirds up the sides of the bakers. Bake for 10 minutes. Remove the lids from the bakers, and bake for 12 minutes longer, then turn the oven up to broil. Broil until the whites are set but still jiggle a little and the tops start to brown, about 2 minutes longer. Serve with the buttered toast.

BAKED SPINACH AND EGGS
Categories Egg Breakfast Vegetarian
Number Of Ingredients 5
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Lightly spray or grease with a little oil individual ramekins or other small oven safe dishes that can accomodate 1-2 eggs. See photo above. Set aside. Place the spinach in a deep skillet or a large frying pan. Add a little water (2-3 Tablespoons). Using medium heat, cook the spinach just until wilted, roughly 3-4 minutes. Use either your hand or a spatula to pack in the spinach. Drain the excess water well especially if you are using frozen spinach. Distribute the spinach evenly among the prepared ramekins or oven-safe dishes. Crack 1-2 eggs on top of the spinach. Season lightly with salt and pepper - lightly because Feta cheese is pretty salty on its own. Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese on top. Place the baking dishes or ramekins on a cookie sheet and bake for about 15-18 minutes or until the eggs are set/cooked (whites are set and yolks look firm on the edges) to your liking. I like mine well-done but some like eggs that are a little runny. Whatever you like as long as the eggs are substantially cooked inside, it's fine. Serve with some toasted bread or rice on the side and tomato juice.
Tips:
- Choose fresh spinach: Fresh spinach has a vibrant green color and crisp leaves. Avoid wilted or yellowed spinach as it may be past its prime.
- Wilt the spinach properly: Wilting the spinach removes excess moisture and helps it cook evenly. To wilt the spinach, heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the spinach and cook, stirring frequently, until wilted and slightly softened.
- Use a variety of cheeses: This recipe calls for a combination of Parmesan and mozzarella cheese, but you can use any type of cheese that you like. Some other good options include cheddar, Swiss, or Gruyère.
- Don't overcook the eggs: The eggs should be cooked until they are just set, but not overcooked. Otherwise, they will become rubbery.
- Serve immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it is made. The eggs will continue to cook if they are left to sit, so it is important to serve them while they are still hot.
Conclusion:
Baked spinach and eggs is a delicious and nutritious breakfast, lunch, or dinner option. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own preferences. With its vibrant colors and flavors, this dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
