Bacon-Wrapped Eggs
Eggs just go well with mornings. Don’t you think? It is everyone’s preferred source of morning protein (well almost everyone…there are some strange people out there that don’t like eggs…funny, right?! If you’re one of these people…don’t take it personal. Maybe you’ll start liking eggs once you try this recipe!).
Eating eggs every morning or every other morning can be a little repetitive, so one is bound to find creative ways to cook those little babies up. At my house we eat eggs a lot…we eat them with veggies, with avocado, with turkey, with beef, with bacon, with steak, with sweet potatoes….you name it. We try to make egg-eating, fun. We love eggs and there is no way that we’re going to let ourselves get tired of them! Ever! 
My husband’s favorite is eggs with bacon. I find myself making a lot of scrambled eggs with bacon…and I thought my hubby’s “favorite” needed a fun little twist. To spice things up, you know. This is what I did…
Tools you’ll need:
- Muffin pan
- Kitchen mitten
- Spoon
Ingredients:
- 12 Bacon Strips (your favorite type of bacon, I used organic turkey bacon)
- 12 Eggs
- Sea salt and pepper to taste
[* You decide how many bacon-wrapped eggs you want to make at a time; if you want only four, then you’ll only need four strips of bacon and four eggs.]
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Take bacon strips and place them inside each muffin pan’s cup, making sure that you wrap the bacon around the cup’s inside walls.
- Crack an egg in each cup, so that the bacon ends up wrapping the egg.
- Cook in oven for 14 minutes (if you want a runny yolk bake for 8 minutes, if you want a semi-soft yolk bake for 12 minutes).
- Take out muffin pan from the oven and use your spoon to help you take out each bacon-wrapped egg.
- Add pepper and sea salt on top if needed.
[* You may want to soak up the muffin pan immediately; this will make it easier to clean up…the eggs can get really sticky!]

I took a paper towel, with a little bit of coconut oil on it, to the inside of the muffin tin first. No messy, sticky eggs!!! They popped right out and clean up was really easy.

Hi Sarah! I’m sorry to hear that. How long did you bake them for?

The Bacon Wrapped Eggs were Delicious. They took 15+ min and like Sarah the bacon did not cook thru. In order to keep the bacon from overlapping, I cut about two inches off the bacon and placed it in the bottom of the muffin pan. Next time I will put the bacon in the muffin pan and put it in the oven without the egg for a while…then add the egg and bake for 12 minutes or so.

After 30 minutes these weren’t done so I flipped them on their side and broiled them but it wasn’t enough to save them…
