Bacon and Egg Baskets

Ingredients

  • 12 SLICES BREAD
  • 3 EGGS
  • 3 TBSP RICOTTA CHEESE
  • ½ CUP MILK
  • ½ CUP FINELY GRATED CHEESE
  • 2 LEAVES SPINACH, SHREDDED
  • 2 RASHERS BACON, FINELY CHOPPED

Method

Preheat oven to 180°C. Place all  12 slices of bread on the clean kitchen benchtop. Press a circle into each bread slice using a biscuit cutter or lid, as close to the edges of the crust as possible. Cut out the circle and discard the outsides and crusts. Press each circle into a 12-hole muffin tray. Place in the oven for about 5-10 minutes until slightly hardened, but  pull them out of the oven before they turn brown.
Combine the eggs, ricotta, and milk and mix well. Add the cheese, spinach, and bacon and stir, combining all ingredients together. Pour mixture evenly into each  bread case, and place back in the oven. Bake for 15-20 minutes until the bread is a golden brown colour.
