Egg Bread Ingredients- 340g pancake mix
- 200g milk
- 10 eggs
- 2 strips bacon (approx. 40g), finely chopped
- 70g mozzarella cheese
- 40g cheddar cheese, finely chopped
- Mayonnaise, a little
- Salt, a pinch
- Black pepper, a pinch
- Sugar, a pinch (optional)
- Dried parsley, a pinch
- Olive oil, a little (for greasing molds)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Let’s start by preparing the ingredients for our delicious oven-baked egg bread!
Step 2
First, finely chop the bacon into small pieces (about 1cm) and set aside. Also, chop the cheddar cheese. Having all your ingredients prepped makes the baking process much smoother.
Step 3
We’ll be using store-bought pancake mix for this recipe, making it super convenient. Pancake mix is a fantastic shortcut that helps even novice bakers achieve great results.
Step 4
Place 340g of pancake mix into a mixing bowl.
Step 5
Add 1 egg and 200g of milk to the bowl. Whisk everything together until you have a smooth batter with no lumps. You can refer to the video for the ideal batter consistency; it should be neither too thick nor too thin. (Tip: You might need to adjust the milk slightly depending on the brand of pancake mix.)
Step 6
Lightly grease the inside of your egg bread molds with olive oil. This crucial step ensures that your bread doesn’t stick after baking, keeping its lovely shape intact. I’ll be making 9 egg breads today. (Tip: You can use muffin tins or tart molds of various sizes.)
Step 7
Fill each mold with about one-third of the prepared batter. Be careful not to overfill, as the batter will rise during baking.
Step 8
Next, add a small dollop of mayonnaise on top of the batter. The mayonnaise adds a subtle richness and moisture, enhancing the overall flavor of the egg bread.
Step 9
Gently place one egg into each mold, nestled on top of the batter. Use a chopstick to gently poke the egg yolk. This prevents the egg from exploding in the oven and helps it cook evenly.
Step 10
Sprinkle a pinch of salt evenly over each egg yolk for seasoning, followed by a dash of black pepper for extra flavor. Then, arrange the chopped bacon pieces on top.
Step 11
Generously sprinkle the chopped cheddar cheese and mozzarella cheese over the bacon. For a touch of sweetness that complements the savory flavors, lightly dust with a tiny amount of sugar. (I added a little sugar because the kids love a sweet element, but feel free to omit it if you prefer.)
Step 12
Finally, sprinkle a pinch of dried parsley over everything for a touch of color and freshness.
Step 13
Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for approximately 30 minutes. Baking times can vary depending on your oven. After about 20 minutes, insert a toothpick into the bread; if it comes out clean, the egg bread is done. (Tip: If the tops start browning too quickly, you can cover them loosely with aluminum foil.)
Step 14
Voila! Your delicious oven-baked egg bread is ready. Enjoying it warm is an absolute delight – the texture is incredibly soft and moist, thanks to the milk, and the flavors of the egg and bread blend beautifully.
Step 15
The texture is wonderfully soft, almost like a fluffy castella cake, with delightful bites of egg, savory bacon, and gooey cheese. It’s a perfect harmony of textures and tastes.
Step 16
Feel free to customize your egg bread by adding your favorite ingredients! Experimenting with different fillings is part of the fun. These homemade egg breads are a guaranteed hit as a snack for kids!
Step 17
Serve your warm egg bread with a glass of milk, a cup of coffee, a refreshing ade, or a soothing tea for a complete and satisfying meal. Create wonderful memories with your loved ones over these homemade delights!
