Ingredients
- 1 cup shredded hash browns
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or your favorite)
- 4 large eggs
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Cooking spray or oil for greasing
- Optional: diced vegetables like bell peppers or spinach
- Optional: cooked bacon or sausage, crumbled
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grab your trusty muffin tin and give it a light spray with cooking spray or oil.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded hash browns and cheese. This is going to be the base of your cute little nests.
- Using your hands, scoop the hash brown mixture into the muffin tin cups, creating a little cup shape. Make sure to press down firmly to hold its shape. You want these nests sturdy enough to hold all that eggy goodness!
- Pop those hash brown cups in the oven and bake for about 20 minutes, or until they’re golden and crispy. Just enough time to dance around your kitchen like a breakfast superstar!
- Once they’re done, take them out and let them cool for a few minutes. Now comes the fun part: crack an egg into each nest! You can sprinkle some salt and pepper for flavor. If you’re feeling adventurous, throw in some diced veggies or meat!
- Return the muffin tin to the oven and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the eggs are set to your liking. Keep an eye on those nests—nobody likes a burnt breakfast!
- Once they’re ready, let them cool for a couple of minutes, then gently remove them from the muffin tin. You can serve them with your favorite hot sauce or a sprinkle of herbs to elevate that breakfast experience!
