hi guys welcome back to CJ's Keele kitchen tonight we're going to be making some more breakfast food and we're going to be making some adorable little cups and their bacon and egg cups they're very easy and they're very pretty so they would be really nice for a brunch idea or any kind of party or family get-together and they're also very portable so they'd be great for your kids to take to school or for you to pack in your lunch they're very easy and they're very Kino friendly in fact they're paleo they could also be considered carnivores so lots of different eating lifestyles could use this recipe so okay to start our egg cups we need to partially cook our bacon so I like to do my bacon in the oven at 400 degrees you're more than welcome to do it in a pan if that's how you do your bacon but we need 12 slices of bacon because we are going to be using a muffin tin and you want to pre spray your muffin tin so we need 12 slices of bacon and I'm going to put mine in a 400 degree oven for about 10 minutes you want your bacon to be partially cooked but still flexible enough for us to feed into our muffin tin so I'm going to put my bacon in and just watch it so that it gets about halfway done okay so I precooked my bacon about halfway I am going to remove my bacon onto a paper towel covered plate and let it cool off for just a minute and then we will fold them around into our little muffin cups okay so you are going to take your pieces of bacon and just put them in your muffin tin in a nice little circle oh so my bacon you see that it's mostly cooked partially cooked but still flexible because you needed to still be flexible enough to do this step so because it's gonna further crisp in the oven when we're baking it so it's flexible but it's still mostly cooked so whether you choose to do that on on your stove or whether you do it in the oven like I do because I do not like getting splattered with grease I do like bacon but I like making my bacon in the oven so if you've never done it in the oven you should give it a try so we're just making little frames little nests so that when we put our egg in the bacon is just going to further cook around the egg making a little cup or a little basket and you can use any kind of bacon that you want my first batch of bacon behaved better than this batch of bacon now we are going to take our eggs and of course you're going to need a dozen eggs because you've got a dozen holes here and we're going to carefully crack into an egg so these eggs are gonna end up soft set and of course you know you can cook them based on how you like your egg if you like your eggs a little firmer now you could also you know put scrambled egg in here if you wanted or add vegetables cheese but we're just gonna cook them like this really cute and then I'm going to put a little bit of green onion and some seasoning on the top of each of my eggs you could use chives you could use any other kind of herbs it just makes them look really pretty and spring-like with the green on top and these would be a pretty like I said earlier a brunch idea or a shower or if you were gonna have company you could make these ahead of time you can freeze these you can refrigerate them however long you need to and then you can just reheat them in the microwave I'm going to season mine with a little bit of Trader Joe's 21 seasonings salute you can use whatever you'd like I'm also going to put a little salt and pepper a bit of salt I missed one for the seasoning and then I'm just gonna put a little bit of onion on there give it some flavor and some color and like I said you could do chives or you could do some other herb if you if there's an herb you're fond of you could put chopped pepper in here I'm going to leave too without onion for my children and these need to go back into our oven like I said I cooked my bacon in the oven but if you didn't the oven needs to be at 400 degrees and we're going to cook these for about 12 to 15 minutes depending on how firm you like your egg they're done this is what they were supposed to look like and the egg is is soft set on some of them and it's a little firmer set on others because CJ doesn't like a gravy but I do but if you like a gravy then just watch your eggs accordingly and it would keep it a little more soft set but these are firmer okay CJ it is time for another taste test Wow I know the drudgery opportunity so what are you eating today these are our delicious bacon and egg cups and they're easy to make pretty portable yeah and you have some without green onions and some with yes here's one with green onions okay down the hatch baby is the bacon crispy yeah yeah I've had this before somebody else made it and their bacon wasn't crispy so that is part of the key to this is the whole pre-cooking at least half way yeah yeah that's that's a key to this tastes good yeah that's good that's good I don't know you know there's a fine line between cooking and baking all the way in you know pretty cooking it but it's good its crispy the only thing I would add but this is just a personal preference I catch up to yes yes all your eggs yeah that's kind of a Midwestern thing so I must be an East Coast thing too oh yeah that's good okay good we'll see you next time bye thanks for joining us again tonight you guys we hope that you enjoy the egg
