Bacon, Egg, Tomato & Herb Cups
Ingredients
- 12 rashers streaky bacon (we love Hellers)
- 12 cherry tomatoes (we love Beekist)
- A handful of finely chopped chives and parsley (we love Superb Herb)
- 12 free-range eggs (we love Woodland)
- 200g Parmesan - finely grated (we love Mainland)
- Salt & Pepper
- A drizzle extra virgin olive oil (we love Olivado)
Method
- Preheat oven to 200°C and grease the muffin tray with olive oil.
- Wrap 1 bacon strip around the sides of each muffin hole in a circle and place a muffin case inside. Fill with baking beans. Bake in the oven for 10 minutes. Take the case and baking beans out and set aside.
- Separate the yolks from the whites being very careful to keep yolks whole.
- In a bowl mix together the whites, herbs, parmesan and season with a little salt and pepper (remember the parmesan is salty so just a wee pinch of salt).
- Divide the egg white mixture into the bacon “cups” and bake for 10 minutes.
- Remove the tray from the oven and add one egg yolk to the top of each hole and bake for a further 3 minutes.
- Serve hot with some tomato sauce!
