classic american, dinner

Serve with crusty bread and a fruity salad!

ingredients

  • 8 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 cup 35% cream
  • ½ package of bacon, about 250g or 8 rashers, chopped
  • ½ white onion, finely diced
  • 2 cups Gruyère cheese, grated

Next time, though, try (for a smaller, egg-ier serving)

  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 package morning star “bacon” (about 125g), diced
  • 1/2 onion, finely diced
  • 3/4 cup gruyere cheese, grated
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • sprinkle pepper

directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400F.
  2. Gently whisk eggs, cream, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
  3. Heat pan. When pan is hot, add diced bacon. Cook until nearly done, add onions. Cook until they look tasty!
  4. Add eggs. Then add cheese on top. Cook eggs undisturbed until eggs cling to the side of the skillet, about 3 min or less.
  5. Transfer skillet to oven and cook for 15 min or so, until it puffs up and the top is golden.
  6. USING AN OVEN MIT, remove skillet from oven. KEEP OVEN MIT ON WHEN CUTTING! Serve warm with salad and bread.
