This looks like one of the egg skillets at Bob Evans restaurants, but it's not. This dish is very versatile. You can add all kinds of things to it, such as bacon, ham, onion, peppers, and so on. Recipe: Zwickerhillphotog.com Photo: fiberfarm.com

How To Make scottish eggs

Step 1

Butter a 2-qt. casserole dish. Place bread crumbs over the bottom of the dish.

Step 2

Place eggs in the dish, spacing them evenly. Salt and pepper to taste. DO NOT break the yolks. Sprinkle liberally with chives.
Step 3

Top with grated cheese; Pour half and half over all.
Step 4

You may also add other ingredients to your liking, but meats and vegetables should be pre-cooked.
Step 5

Bake in a preheated 400-degree oven for 20 minutes for firm eggs, 15 minutes for softer eggs. DO NOT open the oven door until the time has elapsed, or they won't souffle.
