For optimal bacon crispness, pat bacon dry with paper towels before baking. Consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the egg mixture for a subtle kick. These egg cups can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave or oven until warmed through. Explore different cheese variations such as Gruyere, Monterey Jack, or a spicy blend for added flavor complexity.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil. (5 minutes)
02
StepPlace bacon slices on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overlapping. (2 minutes)
03
StepBake bacon in the preheated oven until partially cooked but still pliable, about 8 minutes. Remove from oven and reduce the temperature to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). Let bacon rest until cool enough to handle. (10 minutes)
04
StepSpray 6 cups of a muffin pan generously with nonstick cooking spray. This will ensure easy removal of the egg cups. (2 minutes)
05
StepIn a medium bowl, whisk eggs together until light and frothy. (2 minutes)
06
StepWrap a slice of partially cooked bacon around the inside of each prepared muffin cup, creating a savory 'wall'. Divide shredded Cheddar cheese evenly amongst the 6 muffin cups, nestling it within the bacon. Gently pour the whisked egg mixture over the cheese in each cup, filling almost to the top. (10 minutes)
07
StepBake in the preheated oven until eggs are set and the tops are golden brown, approximately 13 to 15 minutes. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean. (15 minutes)
08
StepRemove from oven and let cool slightly before gently removing the egg cups from the muffin pan. Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator for a quick breakfast option throughout the week. (5 minutes)
