Day # 24: Eggs in the Oven


Well, that double post yesterday really fell through the cracks, didn't it? Our laptop at home is broken, so it's getting more difficult to blog on a whim! Hopefully that problem is fixed this weekend, as planned.

Today, I am so excited to let you in on a little secret that I found (as many as you probably have) on Pinterest

I made hard boiled eggs in the oven over the weekend, and they were great! I had read they would be easier to peel, but to be honest that was not one of the things I experienced. They were tasty though!

First, I put my eggs, straight from the fridge, into a cupcake pan. You can bake them from 325-350 for (approx) 30 minutes. I did 325, but next time I would totally do 350 for 30 minutes. I also say approx 30 minutes, since all ovens are not created equal :)



After 30 minutes in the oven, I put them in a bowl of ice water for 10 minutes. This was to stop them from cooking/baking/"boiling" further.



Then I ate them! MmMmm!

This may take longer than boiling your eggs on the stovetop, but I find it much easier. For one, I could never remember the details of hard boiling eggs, I have asked my mom how every time I've attempted it! (Right, Mom?!) Also, you can just stick them in the oven and go off and do something else, like laundry! That's what I did!
How do you like your eggs, and would you try this way?

XOXO,

  1. I tried this once and forgot they were in the oven. I didn't remember until I smelled them. Needless to say, I kind of ruined them! I guess next time I will have to set a timer!

  2. I know exactly what you mean about having to ask your mom every time how to make hard boiled eggs. My mom gets a call every Easter from me!
