Spinach and tomato baked egg cups are great for breakfast and brunch!

Growing up I HATED breakfast. My poor mother tried everything— pancakes, eggs, cereal, smoothies, doughnuts— but I wanted nothing to do with any of it. Fast forward 25 years and breakfast and I are still learning how to get along.

Often I forget to eat altogether, but on the days when I do remember to make something for breakfast, I actually really enjoy it. And I wonder why don’t make myself breakfast every day. (Cue huge eye roll)

Dishes like these spinach and tomato baked egg cups are quickly becoming my fave. There’s so much flavor, they’re a great healthy start to the day, and they’re simple enough for any morning of the week.

How to bake eggs

The eggs in these cups are baked on a bed of spinach and cherry tomatoes, and topped with fresh herbs and parmesan cheese. Baking times will vary based on how you like your eggs:

  • 12-15 minutes for runny yolks
  • 15-18 minutes for soft-cooked/medium yolks
  • 18-20 minutes for hard-cooked yolks

And then serve immediately!

However, you can store these egg cups in the fridge for a few days. Eggs baked till yolks are still runny or soft-cooked will reheat best.
