Description

A simple and convenient method to make hard boiled eggs using your oven. This technique involves baking whole eggs in a muffin tin, resulting in evenly cooked eggs with minimal effort. Perfect for meal prep or when you need multiple eggs quickly without boiling water.


Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 12 eggs


Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure an even cooking temperature for your eggs.
  2. Prepare Eggs in Muffin Tin: Place one egg into each slot of a muffin tin. The muffin tin keeps the eggs stable while they bake, preventing rolling and cracking.
  3. Bake the Eggs: Bake the eggs for 20-30 minutes depending on your preferred yolk texture. For slightly softer yolks, bake closer to 20 minutes; for fully hard boiled eggs, bake for 30 minutes.

Notes

  • Allow eggs to cool briefly before handling to avoid burns.
  • Place cooled eggs in an ice water bath or run under cold water to stop cooking and make peeling easier.
  • Baking times may vary slightly depending on your oven and egg size.
  • This method makes peeling easier as the baking creates a gap between the shell and egg white.
