Bacon and Eggs in Pots

Breakfast in bed is served with potted bacon and eggs. We’ve created a fun twist on the classic French œufs en cocotte (eggs in pots), where runny eggs are baked in ramekins and paired with buttery toast for a delicious breakfast or brunch. Our version adds bacon and cheese to the mix, with the added bonus that this dish can be cooked in your microwave in less time than it will take your toast to pop! We think it lends itself very well to a lazy breakfast in bed.
