Perfect Oven Baked Eggs
Honestly, anything is perfect when it is nestled in between caramelized onions and three different cheeses. This recipe in particular has the extra perk of a crispy toppings and bakes up in under five minutes. You can adjust the time for a more over easy or over hard egg.I’m a personal fan of a perfectly cooked through egg white, a slightly runny yolk. It’s hard to achieve that every time when you’re cooking your eggs on a stove top. However, if you give your eggs a nice little cheesy nest and use the oven to cook them, you’ll always have the perfect oven baked eggs!
