Egg, Bacon, and Toast Cups!

My kids raved about this awesome breakfast they got to eat!  They absolutely loved it, and kept telling me that I need to make this more often!  I loved that my kids enjoyed their breakfast...cereal and pancakes can get old really fast! (recipe from Pinterest) 


Ingredients:

3 Tbsp butter or margarine, melted
8 slices of bread
6 slices of bacon
6 large eggs
salt and pepper


Directions:

Preheat oven to 375*, lightly butter 6 standard muffin cup pan (if you are using a 12 cup pan, butter every other cup).  With a rolling pin, flatten the bread slightly, and with a 4 1/4 in cookie cutter, cut 8 rounds.  Cut each round in half, then press 2 halves into the muffin cups, overlapping slightly, and making sure the bread comes up to the edges of cup.  Use extra bread to patch any gaps.  Brush bread with remaining butter.


In a large skillet cook bacon over medium heat, until almost crisp, about 4 minutes, flipping once (bacon will continue to cook in the oven).  Lay one piece of bacon in bread cup, and crack one egg over bacon.  Season with salt and pepper.


Bake at 375* until egg whites are just set; approximately 20-25 minutes.  Run a small knife around cups to loosen the toasts.  Serve immediately.
