breakfast · 4 servings · 21 min · easy

Bacon lines little silicone cups and an egg goes in the middle, so breakfast cooks itself while you make the coffee. Great for a slow weekend morning or a make-ahead work week.
Ingredients
- 8 slice middle bacon rashers
- 8 piece eggs
- 40 gram tasty cheese
- 1 tablespoon chives
- 1 pinch black pepper
Instructions
- 1Line the inside of eight silicone muffin cups with a rasher of bacon each, curling it around the wall.
- 2Sit four cups in the air fryer basket and cook at 180°C for 4 minutes to set the bacon. A 5-6L basket fits four cups at a time, so plan on two batches.
- 3Crack an egg into each part-cooked bacon cup.
- 4Scatter grated cheese over the eggs and cook at 160°C for 9 minutes.
- 5Lift the cups out with tongs and repeat with the second batch.
- 6Snip chives over the top and add a grind of pepper.
