Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Savory Bacon and Egg Breakfast Cupcakes.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and give a 12-cup muffin pan a light coating of cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Step 2
In a large skillet, cook the chopped bacon over medium heat until it turns beautifully browned and crispy, which should take about 8 minutes.
Step 3
Once it’s done, drain off half of the grease, but don’t toss it all—transfer the bacon and the remaining grease into a large mixing bowl.
Step 4
Next, add in the grated potatoes, chopped shallots, and the delightful grated Parmesan cheese.
Step 5
Give everything a good mix until well combined; this is where the magic begins! Now, evenly spoon the potato and bacon mixture into each muffin cup, pressing it down gently to create a solid base.
Step 6
Then, pour the beaten eggs into each cup, filling them right to the brim for that perfect fluffy texture.
Step 7
Pop the muffin pan into your preheated oven and bake for about 12 minutes, or until the eggs are set and firm.
Step 8
Once they’re ready, carefully remove the pan from the oven and switch your oven setting to Broil.
Step 9
Top each muffin with a slice of fresh tomato, then return them to the oven for a quick broil of about 3 minutes, just until the tomatoes are lightly toasted and bursting with flavor.
Step 10
After broiling, let the cupcakes cool for a moment before transferring them to a serving tray.
Step 11
For an extra touch of deliciousness, feel free to crown each cupcake with a slice of creamy avocado.
Step 12
Enjoy your delightful creation, perfect for breakfast or a savory snack!.
