Notes

  • Gently poke the top of the yolk with the pad of your finger to test for doneness. If the yolk bounces back, it is done. If it ripples, it needs more time. If it feels firm, it is overdone.
  • Nutritional information does not include optional toppings.
Storage: Store baked eggs tightly covered in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
