ingredients


Baskets

8 slices white bread, crusts removed
2 tablespoons butter or margarine, softened

Eggs

2 tablespoons butter or margarine
7 eggs, beaten
3 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
OR
1 1/2 teaspoon dried chives

directions

To prepare baskets, flatten bread slices with rolling pin. Spread butter on one side of each slice. Press bread, buttered side down, into muffin cups. Bake at 350 degrees F for 12-15 minutes or until lightly toasted.

Meanwhile, to prepare eggs, melt butter in large skillet. Add beaten eggs and chives and cook over medium-low heat until softly scrambled. Season with salt if desired.

When bread baskets are done, increase oven temperature to 475 degrees F. Fill baskets with scrambled eggs, top each with a square of cheddar cheese. Return to oven for about 2 minutes or until cheese is melted.

  1. Valerie REVIEW:

    Even though they look like more work than typical scrambled eggs would require, they were actually really quick to make. By the time the toasts are baked the eggs are done and ready to assemble. And, they are tasty too!
