Ingredients

  • 1 Loaf sandwich bread
  • 1 tablespoon parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon chives
  • 1 cup chopped bacon
  • 4 eggs large makes 4-6 muffin-sized bacon egg pies
  • 8 cherry tomatoes
  • 1 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon parsley
  • 2 chili less if you do not like to hot
  •  

Instructions

  • Make crispy bacon -  we baked the bacon on parchment paper in the oven until crisp (330F or 170F 12-15 mins - preheat the oven) -or you can sauté in a pan until bacon is crisp - about 2 minutes. 
  • Cut bread crusts off.
  • Use a rolling pin to flatten the bread.
  • Massage and press the bread into the muffin tin.
  • Place in the oven for 3 minutes (320F or 160C). The muffin toast cups should not be browned, and just a bit dry (like "toasted bread").
  • Cut the bacon, chives, and parsley into bit sized pieces.
  • Cut some tomatoes into small pieces to put into the quiche mix. Keep some cut in halves to use as decoration on the top of your bacon and egg pie.
  • Whisk together the egg, milk, parsley, chives, and tomato with the bacon and cheese and a pinch of salt and pepper.
  • Pour or spoon the egg mixture into each cup till approximately ¾ full. 
  • Then reasonably quickly place in the oven. Waiting too long means the egg mixture may soak into the toast cups. And This will make them soggy.
  • Bake for 330F or 170F 12-15 mins - preheat the oven or it will take a little longer - until the top is lightly golden and the filling is set.
  • Test they are done by carefully touching the top with your finger and see if they are reasonably firm.
  • Remove from oven and rest for 5 minutes before serving. 
  • Garnish with extra parsley or sprinkle paprika if desired. Serve warm.
