Ingredients
  

  • 12 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 tablespoon whole milk
  • Salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Method
 

  1. Let’s jump into the steps! Follow along carefully, and you'll create a breakfast marvel.
Step 1: Preheat Your Oven
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). A properly heated oven ensures that your eggs cook evenly.
Step 2: Prepare Your Baking Dish
  1. Grab a rimmed baking sheet or an oven-safe dish. Grease it with melted butter, ensuring that it covers the surface well. This step helps prevent sticking and adds flavor.
Step 3: Crack the Eggs
  1. Now, crack one egg into each section of your prepared dish. If you’re feeling fancy, avoid any shell bits by cracking them into a bowl first and then gently sliding them into place.
Step 4: Add Milk and Seasonings
  1. Drizzle the melted butter over the eggs. Then add the milk, a pinch of salt, and a crack of fresh black pepper on top. These ingredients will elevate the taste and create a creamy texture.
Step 5: Bake to Perfection
  1. Slide the dish into the oven. Bake for about 12 to 15 minutes. Keep an eye on them after the 10-minute mark. You want the whites to be set but the yolks to still be a bit jiggly, just before they reach their prime.
Step 6: Serve Hot
  1. Once they are cooked to your liking, remove the dish from the oven. Serve the fried eggs with your favorite sides and enjoy!
