Start your day right with these delightful Bacon Egg Cups, a simple yet satisfying breakfast treat. To prepare, preheat your oven to 190°C (Gas Mark 5). Begin by greasing a muffin tin lightly. Next, take slices of smoked back bacon and carefully line each cup, ensuring there's a lovely overlap. This not only adds flavour but also helps to create a sturdy base for your eggs.

Crack an egg into each bacon-lined cup, being mindful to keep the yolk intact. For an extra touch, sprinkle a pinch of black pepper and a dash of salt over the top, or even some grated cheese if you’re feeling indulgent. Bake in the oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the eggs are set to your liking. The aroma wafting through your kitchen will be simply irresistible!

Once they’re ready, gently remove the bacon egg cups from the tin and serve hot. These cups not only make for a hearty breakfast but are also perfect as a quick snack or a post-workout meal. Enjoy your delicious creation, whether paired with a slice of toasted sourdough or on their own!
