The traditional method of cooking a poached egg can be a hassle, to say the least. It's not only messy but you can only cook 2 or 3 of them at a time. I'm here to tell you that there is good news: YOU CAN MAKE POACHED EGGS IN THE OVEN!!!
Give an oversized muffin pan (I think they are called Texas size?) a light misting of vegetable spray and then put a SCANT tablespoon of water in each well. Place a large egg (no shell) in the water and bake them in a preheated 350 oven(my electric oven takes exactly 12 minutes). After 12 minutes, IMMEDIATELY REMOVE the eggs from the pan with a spoon.
A PERFECTLY POACHED EGG !!
Whether you are making one or 24, this method
really works and it couldn't be easier
Since there are several variables in this recipe (pan size, oven temperature, egg size) I suggest you do a "test egg" to determine how long YOUR oven will take.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Just make sure you take the poached eggs out of the pan IMMEDIATELY, so they do not continue to cook.
Don't you just want to
dunk your toast in this one?
ENJOY !!!
