Baking instead of Boiling Eggs!

Here is a super easy way to 'boil' your eggs without boiling them! I never perfected the art of perfectly timing boiled eggs, but since I have learned this trick they are always cooked perfect and fewer cracks in the shells!  Place eggs on a mini-muffin pan and let come up to room temperature.  I have seen others use regular muffin pan, I just use the mini so that I can cook more at a time (usually I cook 2 dozen).  This method works the same for 1 egg or dozens.  If you have the space in your oven for 4 pans and you happen to be feeding a small army a bunch of deviled eggs, this will work at the same temperature and same time. =)  When your eggs are no longer chilly, preheat oven to 325 degrees.  Cook the eggs for 30 minutes, carefully remove eggs from pan into a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process and you are done!  To peel, or not to peel..... that depends on your next recipe!

                            After baking: notice the spots?  Most will come off during ice bath.





All clean, only a few spots remain.  Occasionally a few eggs will have a brown spot inside of the shell.
