Bacon & Cheese Egg Cups

A kid-favorite breakfast made with rich, flavorful and simple, wholesome ingredients.

Ingredients:

  • 7 eggs from Happy Egg , divided
  • ¼ cup cottage cheese
  • ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 4 strips cooked bacon, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh herbs (such as chives or parsley)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Cooking spray or oil, for greasing muffin tin

Instructions:

  1. Preheat Oven:
    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray or oil.
  2. Make the Filling:
    In a mixing bowl, whisk together 1 Happy Egg, cottage cheese, shredded cheese, Dijon mustard, chopped herbs, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  3. Assemble the Egg Cups:
    • Crack one Happy Egg directly into each of 6 greased muffin cups.
    • Spoon a generous tablespoon of the cheese mixture on top of each egg.
    • Sprinkle chopped bacon over each cup.
  4. Bake:
    Bake for 20–22 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the tops are golden.
  5. Serve:
    Let cool slightly before removing from the tin. Serve warm and enjoy—seconds are highly encouraged!

Notes:

  • Inside every Happy Egg is a bright, tasty orange yolk that’s packed with flavor and nutrition—making them the perfect choice for breakfast bakes like this one.
  • These egg cups can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheated for busy mornings.
