Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 8 slices white bread
  • 6 slices of Eskort Streaky Bacon
  • 6 large eggs
  • Coarse salt and ground pepper
  • Chives
  • 6 hole muffin tin

Method

  • Preheat oven to 190°C.
  • Lightly butter 6 standard muffin cups.
  • With a rolling pin, flatten bread slices slightly and with a 4 1/4-inch cookie cutter, cut into 8 rounds.
  • Cut each round in half, then press 2 halves into each muffin cup, overlapping slightly and making sure bread comes up to edge of cup.
  • Use extra bread to patch any gaps. Brush bread with remaining butter.
  • In a large skillet, cook bacon over medium, until almost crisp, 4 minutes, flipping once. (It will continue to cook in the oven.)
  • Lay 1 bacon slice in each bread cup and crack an egg over each. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Bake until egg whites are just set, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Run a small knife around cups to loosen toasts.
  • Add a couple of chopped chives to each cup.
