Breakfast Potato Volcanoes Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: russet potatoes, bacon, shredded cheddar cheese, eggs, fresh chives

Provided by Julie Klink

Categories     Breakfast

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 russet potatoes
6 strips bacon
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
6 eggs
2 tablespoons fresh chives, chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400˚F (200˚C).
  • On a cutting board, peel potatoes then cut each in half widthwise.
  • Using a melon ball scooper or a metal teaspoon hollow out the potato starting from the cut side, once you have most of the potato hollowed out from that side create a smaller hole on the rounded side and continue hollowing until you can see through the potato.
  • Place potatoes in water to avoid discoloration while you finish hollowing out the rest.
  • Place potatoes with the smaller hole facing up on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
  • Wrap one piece of bacon and each potato, tucking in the end of the bacon so it stays in place. You might need to use a toothpick to hold the bacon in place.
  • Bake for 45 minutes, or until bacon reaches desired crispiness.
  • Allow potatoes to cool slightly then press cheddar cheese into the bottom of the potato.
  • Crack an egg over the top hole of the potato being careful not to let too much of the egg white pour over the side.
  • Sprinkle chives over the egg.
  • Bake for 6 to 12 minutes depending on how well done you would like your eggs.
  • Let cool before serving.
  • Enjoy!
