Learn how to make oven-baked eggs, so you have a quick, high-quality protein that tastes great alone, or served on top of toast, a salad, rice or other favorite food.

Almost all of my blog posts are inspired by questions from clients and consumers – this oven baked egg recipe included.

Last week I was helping a client find easy ways to add protein to his breakfast. He likes eggs, but only if they are prepared over-medium. And, he was honest that cooking eggs before he went to work wasn’t an option. That’s when I suggested preparing a batch of baked eggs. He wasn’t familiar, but when I explained that he could bake them in advance and have a morning meal in minutes, he agreed to try them.

This recipe might be the easiest one on my blog. You only need one ingredient – eggs. And, you only need a few other kitchen essentials – a muffin tin, an oven and cooking spray.

How Do You Bake Eggs In The Oven?

To start, pre-heat the oven to 350° degrees. Spray a muffin tin with cooking spray, then crack one egg into each cup. You want the yolk to remain intact, so make sure you’re careful not to breakit open as you crack the eggs. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, red pepper flakes or other seasoning, as desired. Bake in the oven for 16-18 minutes. Remove from oven. Eat immediately or transfer to refrigerator to enjoy another day.

There are endless ways to enjoy these oven-baked eggs. They are perfect with rice pilaf, in your favorite salad or on top of toast. Check out my recipe for avocado toast with baked eggs.
