Description

Egg in a bread bowl is the perfect breakfast for a crowd because it is completely customizable!

Ingredients

  • 8 whole Crusty Bread Rolls
  • 2 Tablespoons Butter, Melted
  • Salt And Pepper
  • Assorted Fillings (See Suggestions In Instructions)
  • 8 whole Eggs

Preparation

Preheat your oven to 350ºF. Slice off the top of each roll and scoop out the soft bread inside, leaving the sides of the roll intact. Brush the inside of each roll with the melted butter and season with salt and pepper.

Let your guests fill the roll with their favorite toppings (see suggestions below). Crack an egg or egg white on top, season with salt and pepper, and place on a cookie sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes and then cover the pan loosely with foil. Bake an additional 20-25 minutes, or until the egg is just set.

Suggested fillings: grape tomatoes, cilantro, parsley, thyme, shredded cheese, herbed goat cheese, caramelized onions, pre-cooked breakfast potatoes, spinach artichoke dip, deli ham, cooked sausage, crumbled bacon, onions, mushrooms, spinach, feta cheese.

I made these with leftover dinner rolls. They were delicious! Thanks for the clever way to use up one of my many leftovers!

Ok I tried these again this weekend after hubs begged me to. I used fresh eggs from the chicken’s instead of the store bought ones and they cooked perfectly this time. They were great we will be keeping this in the Saturday morning rotation. Thanks
p.s. I tried to rate it again with more mitts but it would not save change.

So glad everyone likes them! They are one of my favorites. Kay, you could definitely use egg beaters. I used just the egg white and it turned out great. Just be sure to watch the cooking time.

This is SUPER adorable and is such a good idea for brunch, especially if you have people with vastly different food preferences!

Because I was making this for one person, I adjusted the recipe a bit. I heated the rolls in the oven but then I filled it with freshly cooked bacon, an egg + cheese, spinach, salsa and some fresh parsley. Yummy! I look forward to making this again. It is also a nice portion control method.

This was a great idea, and recipe. I made it for brunch on Easter and my family just loved it.

We thought these were fantastic! I think I have really big eggs because most of the whites ran down the side. (Oops.) Love all of the flavor combinations, though!
