This high-protein dish of baked eggs with bacon and spinach offers a sophisticated twist on the classic breakfast muffin. By oven-baking the eggs in individual ramekins with a touch of double cream, you achieve a silky texture that perfectly complements the smoky applewood bacon and earthy wilted spinach. It is a wonderful way to elevate your weekend brunch routine with minimal effort and maximum flavour.
Ideal for those seeking a nutritious, filling start to the day, this recipe provides a balanced combination of iron-rich greens, lean protein, and slow-release carbohydrates from the toasted sourdough muffins. Serve these individual portions immediately while the yolks are still beautifully runny, perhaps with a side of grilled tomatoes for a complete morning meal.

How to make Baked Eggs with Bacon and Spinach
Back to contentsPreheat oven to 204°C. Cook bacon in large skillet over medium heat until crisp; transfer to paper towels. Pour off drippings from skillet; reserve drippings. Add spinach to pan, sprinkle with pepper, and toss over medium heat, 1 minute. Transfer to strainer set over bowl to drain. Brush four 1-cup ramekins with drippings. Crumble bacon.
Place 1 toasted English muffin half, split side up, in each ramekin. Divide spinach among ramekins, then sprinkle bacon over, dividing equally. With back of spoon, shape well in centre of each ramekin. Gently crack 1 egg into well in each ramekin, keeping yolk intact. Drizzle 1 tablespoon cream over each egg. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Bake eggs until whites are just set but yolks are still runny, 14 to 16 minutes.
