How To Make breakfast essentials: hardy breakfast bread bowl

  • 1
    PREP/PREPARE
  • 2
    Gather your Ingredients.
  • 3
    Cut the top off of the bread bowl, or dinner roll.
  • 4
    Cut a circle around the inside of the bottom of the bread, and then scoop out the interior.
  • 5
    Chef’s Note: Leave a nice thick wall of bread on the sides and bottom.
  • 6
    Chef’s Tip: This recipe works better with a soft bread bowl; as opposed to something crunchy.
  • 7
    Place a rack in the middle position, and preheat the oven to 350f (175c).
  • 8
    Brush the interior of the bowl, and the cut side of the top, with the melted butter; making sure to get the bottom and the sides.
  • 9
    Place the bread bowl on a parchment-lined baking sheet, and place in the preheated oven for 5 to 7 minutes, or until it just begins to brown.
  • 10
    Remove from the oven, and line the bottom and up the walls with some thinly sliced ham, precooked bacon, or cooked breakfast sausage.
  • 11
    Break an egg into the bowl.
  • 12
    Add the cheese on top.
  • 13
    Chef's Note: Season with a bit of salt, pepper, and cayenne.
  • 14
    Cover with the bread top, return to the oven and bake until the egg is cooked to your satisfaction. 20 minutes = Runny yolk 25 minutes = Firm yolk, but still a bit soft 30 minutes = Firm everything
