- Cut off top of cooked potato lengthwise. Scoop out flesh, leaving about 1/2-inch worth of 'crust.' Sprinkle lining of potato with 2 tablespoons Cheddar cheese. Break egg into potato and top with bacon, remaining Cheddar cheese, and chives.
- Bake in the preheated oven until egg is set and cheese is melted, 15 to 20 minutes.

IDAHO SUNRISE (BAKED EGGS & BACON IN POTATO BOWLS)
Steps:
- Method: Lay the baked potato on its side, and use a knife to carefully cut off the top third of the potato. With a spoon, hollow out the middle of the potato to make a "bowl", leaving the potato as thick or thin as you'd like. (Just remember, the more room you leave, the more room for eggs, bacon and cheese!) Place 1/2 tablespoon of butter in the middle of each bowl. Then gently break an egg into each bowl, careful not to break the yolk. Top with bacon, cheese, parsley, and then season with salt and pepper. Bake at 350 degrees F for 20-25 minutes, or until the egg whites are set. Serve immediately.
IDAHO SUNRISE
This is from the sweet "The Supper Book." Author Marion Cunningham says, "This is simply a baked potato with a bright yellow egg sitting on top of it, but when you mash the egg into the buttered potato it's like the sun coming up over the mountains." We enjoy this for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's a one portion recipe which obviously can be doubled and re-doubled all you want.

Tips:
- To ensure a smooth and lump-free batter, whisk all dry ingredients together in a medium-sized bowl before gradually adding wet ingredients. Begin by whisking in the eggs and milk, then add the melted butter or oil. Mix until just combined, taking care not to overmix.
- For a more tender and fluffy pancake, allow the batter to rest for 5-10 minutes before cooking. This will allow the gluten in the flour to relax, resulting in a lighter and airier pancake.
- When cooking the pancakes, preheat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium heat. Pour a scant 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake, leaving enough space between them to allow for spreading. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve the pancakes immediately with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, fresh fruit, or whipped cream. For a savory twist, try topping the pancakes with scrambled eggs, bacon, or cheese.
Conclusion:
With its vibrant yellow color and fluffy texture, the Idaho Sunrise pancake is a delicious and nutritious way to start your day. Made with simple ingredients like flour, eggs, milk, butter, and baking powder, these pancakes are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you prefer them classic with butter and syrup, or topped with fresh fruit and whipped cream, Idaho Sunrise pancakes are sure to be a hit with the whole family. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy breakfast or brunch recipe, give these pancakes a try - you won't be disappointed!
