Instructions

  • First, preheat the oven to 350ºF and generously spray a nonstick muffin tin with cooking spray. Alternatively, you can use muffin liners, but we still suggest spraying those with cooking spray.

  • If your eggs don’t come right out, run a knife around the edges to help them loosen.

Notes

  • Timing: the longer you cook your eggs, the harder the yolk will be. Start with 10 minutes and go from there. 
  • Muffin tin: make sure to use a nonstick muffin tin or you might have problems getting your eggs out of the muffin tin. You can also use silicone muffin cups like this one.
