I made this, it was AMAZING! The bacon lost its shape. I needed to make a second batch anyway, with the second batch, to keep the bacon in place, I put maple syrup on the sides that way it could stick to the muffin tin. Not only did the maple syrup keep the whole shape together, but is gave everything a sweet and salty taste which made it WAY BETTER!😁👍🏻

The bacon kept loosing shape but what I did was in the second round flip the bacon over so it shapes again

I would scramble the eggs and then pour into each instead of just cracking them directly in each cup! You’ll definitely want to do 20 mins of baking the eggs if you typically like them scrambled. Easy and something different!

One of my favourite ways of cooking eggs. I bake the bacon and a small rough square of old bread first (to soak the bacon fat) and then when the bacon is almost cooked I put the egg and then check often to make sure egg doesn’t over cook. I leave out the cheese. The only time this recipe fails is when I get distracted and let the egg over cook.
