**Full Disclosure: This post is brought to you by Goldrich Eggs. The opinions and ideas included are my own. #GoldrichYolk
We eat breakfast for dinner a lot – and it’s usually the same ol’ fried or scrambled eggs with toast and either bacon or sausage. We actually really like the same ol’ dinner but in an effort to change things up, I made these Baked Egg Nests with GoldRich eggs. And, OH BOY are they good!
James and Colin gobbled up the baked egg nests and even had seconds. I’m not gonna lie – I really patted myself on the back with these little beauties!
Baked Eggs in a Hash Brown Nest #GoldRichYolk
Ingredients
- GoldRich Eggs - 1 for each nest you make
- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese + 1 TBSP for topping
- ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Crumbled bacon or diced turkey sausage optional
- ½ TBSP parsley
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 425°
-
Mix hash browns, salt, pepper, olive oil, ½ cup mozzarella cheese and ½ cup cheddar cheese in a mixing bowl.
-
Grease a muffin pan and use your fingers to pack the hash brown mixture tightly to form nests in the pan.
-
Bake for about 15 minutes or until the edges have browned and the cheese has melted.
-
Decrease your oven to 350°
-
If you are going to add bacon or sausage, put it in the bottom of the nest.
-
Then crack one GoldRich egg into each nest and add salt and pepper (to taste), a few shreds of cheddar cheese and a sprinkle of parsley.
-
Bake at for 15-20 minutes or until the egg whites are set.
-
Let it cool.
-
Use a fork to gently lift the egg nest out of the pan.
-
Serve and ENJOY!
The perfectly golden yolks, the salty hash browns, a hint of sharp cheddar cheese and a few spices make this breakfast a fantasticly delicious choice for Christmas morning. You could even make the baked egg nests the night before because they reheat pretty well.
Would you add any ingredients to your Baked Egg Nests?

Ohhh I can totally leave the cheese out and make these whole30 compliant! YUM – I have been looking for more breakfast recipes. This is perfect!
Avry says
These would be a perfect portion size too! They look really good – plus I am a sucker for an over easy egg so I probably wouldn’t cook them as long.
Lara says
That looks really yummy! I make eggs in a nest (bread), I never would have thought to do this! Going to give it a try!
Crystal says
Oh those do look good! I usually don’t do breakfast, but they look so easy to make, too.
Sara Phillips says
The hardest part is making the ‘nest’ in the muffin pan!

What a deliciously brilliant idea! I love finding new ways to create breakfast foods. I am going to try this one!
Crystal says
My family all loves breakfast, but with the rush in the mornings there isn’t always time to make anything. We also like to have breakfast for dinner. These look like a delicious way to make breakfast for dinner an even bigger hit!

The only ingredient that I add to virtually every dish is Tony Chacera’s Cajun seasoning. It kicks it up a notch. 🙂

krystal m says
ohh that looks good! I love that this is made in the oven. I make just about everything in the oven. It’s healthier than using oil on the stove top.
Krystyn @ Really, Are You Serious? says
Yum! I’ld pull the cheese and add spinach!!

We love having spinach mixed in our eggs at breakfast, so that’s one extra thing I may add. These nests look yummy as is though!!
