Baked Eggs in Bread Bowls

I don’t know anyone who doesn’t think bread bowls are awesome but up until this point, you probably think about soup when you think about a bread bowl. Although it certainly does make for a great dinner, you can also extend the bread bowl to breakfast with this delicious baked egg recipe. Once you try it, you may never go back to “normal eggs” again.

Ingredients:
– 6 French bread rolls
– 6 eggs
– 1/3 cup bacon, diced small
– 2 tablespoons heavy cream
– 1 teaspoon tarragon, chopped
– 1 teaspoon chives, chopped
– 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, shredded
– Salt & pepper
– 1/3 cup bacon, pre-cooked and diced small (for optional garnish)

Directions:
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Slice the tops off each dinner roll and carve out enough bread to allow room for one egg. Place rolls on a baking sheet. Reserve tops for later.
Line the bottom of each bread cup with 1 tablespoon each of chopped bacon, pressing the bacon against the bottom and sides.
Add 1 egg to each hole.
Top each bread cup with 1 teaspoon each of heavy cream and a sprinkle of the herbs. Season with salt and pepper, and top with 1 tablespoon each of shredded Parmesan cheese.
Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the eggs have set. At the 20 minute mark, place the bread tops on the sheet pan to brown for the last 5 minutes.
Garnish with additional cooked diced bacon, if you like. Place the bread tops on rolls and serve.
