Best Eggs Baked In Bread Bowls Recipes

EGGS BAKED IN BREAD BOWLS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F. Line cookie sheet with cooking parchment paper. Cut thin 3-inch round slice from tops of rolls; reserve tops. Leaving 1/2 inch around side of each roll, remove bread from inside, creating 1/2-inch deep cavity; discard bread crumbs. Place bread bowls on cookie sheet.
• For each bread bowl, crack egg into cavity. Top egg with 1 tablespoon whipping cream, 1 tablespoon cheese, 1/2 teaspoon chives and 1/2 teaspoon parsley; sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Bake 10 minutes; place reserved tops on bread bowls. Bake 2 minutes longer or until cheese is melted and whites and yolks of eggs are firm, not runny.

ITALIAN EGG BREAD BOWL

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Using a serrated knife, slice about 1 inch off the top crust of the Italian bread. Carefully tear out the insides of the loaf, leaving about 3/4-inch of bread to form a shell. Put the loaf on the prepared baking sheet, drizzle inside with some olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Bake until slightly crispy, about 10 minutes. Cool on a baking rack while you make the eggs. Preheat the broiler.
• Heat the 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add the sausage and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until golden brown. Remove the sausage to a paper-towel-lined plate.
• Add the onion and the green and red peppers to the skillet; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 4 minutes. Reduce the heat slightly, then add the chiles, sausage, parsley and basil; toss to combine. Stir in the eggs and about two-thirds of the provolone and cook, stirring, until the eggs just begin to set, less than 1 minute.
• Pour the egg mixture into the bread shell and top with the Parmesan and the remaining provolone. Broil until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the eggs are just cooked through, about 3 minutes. (You can use a cake tester to check--insert it into the eggs to see if it comes out with raw egg on it.)
• Transfer to a cutting board, let set for 1 or 2 minutes, and then slice into 4 to 6 wedges.

• Preheat oven to 350ºF. Slice off top of each dinner roll and gently remove some bread until there is a hole large enough to accommodate an egg. Arrange rolls on a rimmed baking sheet. Reserve tops.
• Crack an egg into each roll, then top with some herbs and a bit of cream. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with Parmesan.
• Bake until eggs are set and bread is toasted, 20 to 25 minutes. After eggs have cooked for 20 minutes, place bread tops on baking sheet and bake until golden brown. Let sit 5 minutes. Place tops on rolls and serve warm.

• Grease a 9 x 13 (3 L) baking dish.
• In large non-stick skillet, cook pancetta over medium heat until browned, about 4 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain. Add onion and red pepper to the drippings in same skillet and cook for about 3 to 5 minutes or until softened. Remove from heat.
• Meanwhile, in large bowl, beat eggs well with seasonings. Stir in milk.
• Spread 1/2 of the bread cubes in baking dish. Layer with 1/2 each onion mixture, pancetta and shredded cheese. Top evenly with spoonfuls of ricotta cheese. Top with remaining bread cubes, onion mixture and pancetta. Pour egg mixture evenly over top; press bread cubes down lightly. Sprinkle with remaining shredded cheese.
• Cover and refrigerate overnight.
• When ready to serve, preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Bake uncovered in the preheated oven for 50 to 55 minutes or until center is set and top is golden brown. Let stand 10 minutes before cutting into square to serve.
