Gemma's Bold Baking Breakfast Italian Baked Eggs

Hi Bold Bakers! This is the third week of my breakfast series. After today, you'll have

a lot of new recipes to create any breakfast or brunch menu for Mother's Day or any special

occasion. These recipes are guaranteed to fuel you and start your day off right. This

week, we are making Italian Baked Eggs. So let's get started.

So what are Italian Baked Eggs? They are eggs cooked in a marinara sauce. Eggs and tomato

sauce go really well together. It's a little bit zesty. A little bit sweet. We're going

to put some cheese on top and it's going to be gorgeous.

We're going to start out by making our marinara sauce. You want to finely chop some onion.

And some garlic. A little tip when chopping garlic is sprinkle some salt on the

chopping board. Salt causes traction on your chopping board and it allows you to mush your

It's a really good trick my mammy Stafford taught me many years ago.

Our next step is to gently sauté our ingredients. So in a heavy bottomed pan, we're going to

add in some olive oil and gently saute our onions. Saute means to cook. To get nice and

tender and translucent but not to brown. Once your onions are cooked off well, we're going

You never add in your garlic at the same time as the onions because it cooks so much faster.

So you add it in when the onions are done.

The secret to getting really good flavor in your sauces is cooking off your onions and

garlic really well. It gives it really good flavor and then you can add in the rest of

Something that's not as traditional, I'm adding some dried chili flakes or you can use fresh

chilies. Chili works really well with eggs. A little bit of spice gives it really good

I like to cook in any spices or even herbs directly on the pan before I add in any liquid.

I feel like it releases the flavor a lot better.

Once these ingredients are cooked really well, we're going to add in our crushed tomatoes.

To this sauce right now you can add in some thyme or even oregano. It will taste really good.

So all we're going to do is let this come to a simmer and cook it for a few minutes

As you can see, marinara is incredibly easy to make and it's not just good for this dish.

It is good for pizza sauce, for pasta, and even for meat sauce. It is so versatile. And

for this, you can make it in advance and just have it in your fridge for whenever you want

After a few minutes of simmering, our marinara sauce is done.

The very last thing I want to do is just to season it with a little bit of salt and pepper.

I want to give it a little taste just to make sure this seasoning is right. Oh, it's yummy.

One thing it is is a little bit acidic which comes from the tomato so how you can balance

that out is to add a little bit of sugar. Not a lot of people think about sugar as seasoning

but it actually works really well with tomatoes to balance out that acidity.

Give it one more taste. Yes, it's perfect. It has a nice kick from the chili. It's going

to be really good. We're going to set this aside and let it cool down a little bit and

To cook my eggs, I'm going to do single servings in a little terra-cotta dish that I have.

You can use any dish you want or even one large dish just make sure they're oven safe.

Spoon your marinara sauce into your little dishes. And then make a little well in the middle where

your egg is going to go. Into the center of your marinara, crack in one big lovely egg.

And on the top I like to sprinkle on a little bit of sharp cheddar. But you can add any

So one of the reasons that I really wanted to show you how to cook eggs is because they

are the ultimate fast food. They're really inexpensive, you nearly always have them in

the fridge, and you can have them for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

This is such an incredibly easy dish to make and yet so rewarding.

So our little eggs are ready for the oven. If you want them a little bit softer then

you can cook them less. It's all up to your preference and how you like your eggs cooked.

Our timer has gone off so let's check on our eggs. Oh, my gosh. They're bubbling and brown.

And they smell gorgeous. I can't wait to try these. They look fantastic.

I like to serve mine with freshly chopped basil on top it just brings a nice element

of freshness. And of course a little bit of toast to dip into your egg. This dish will be

This is so delicious. I really hope you guys get to try this out.
