5 Traditional Egg Cup Recipes
Egg cups make the perfect vessel for serving breakfast, brunch, or even a quick snack. Here are five traditional egg cup recipes that you should try:
Eggs Benedict
Eggs Benedict is a classic brunch dish that features a perfectly poached egg on top of a toasted English muffin and Canadian bacon. The dish is finished off with a generous drizzle of Hollandaise sauce. To make this dish in an egg cup, simply layer the English muffin, bacon, and egg in the cup and top with Hollandaise sauce.
Deviled Eggs
Deviled eggs are a popular appetizer that are easy to make and always a hit at parties. To make them in an egg cup, simply cut a boiled egg in half and remove the yolk. Mix the yolk with mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and any other desired seasonings and fill the empty egg white with the mixture. Top with paprika for a finishing touch.
Huevos Rancheros
Huevos Rancheros is a popular Mexican breakfast dish that is traditionally made with fried eggs served on a tortilla and topped with salsa. To make this dish in an egg cup, bake a corn tortilla until crispy and place it in the bottom of the cup. Add a layer of refried beans, a fried egg, and top with salsa and cheese.
Egg and Soldiers
Egg and soldiers is a classic British breakfast that is simple and comforting. To make it in an egg cup, soft boil an egg and serve it in the cup with a few pieces of toast cut into soldiers for dipping.
Oeufs en Cocotte
Oeufs en cocotte is a French dish that translates to “eggs in a pot.” To make it in an egg cup, layer cooked spinach or bacon in the bottom of the cup, crack an egg on top, and add a dollop of crème fraîche. Bake in the oven until the egg is just set.
