How do you bake an egg in the oven?

Answer 1

• Preheat oven to 325° F.
• For each serving, lightly butter an individual oven-proof baking dish.

• Break one or two eggs into each dish. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon 1 tablespoon milk or cream over eggs (skim milk, low-fat milk, half and half, or light cream may be substituted). Spooning a liquid over the eggs can help prevent drying out.
• Bake in preheated oven approximately 12 to 14 minutes, depending on number of servings being baked. Check the eggs after about 10 minutes baking time. When done, the whites should be completely set and the yolks beginning to thicken but not hard.

the most important thing, dont make an egg in a gass ovin. only in an electric one.

Answer 2

• Preheat oven to 325° F. In my electric oven, I set it at 400° F.
• For each serving, to avoid sticking, add 1/4 teaspoon of olive oil to an individual oven-proof baking dish.
• I suggest a 4 in. ramekin dish, which holds 1 egg perfectly.
• Break one egg into each dish. Season with salt and pepper. Add spices if you like. Bake in preheated oven approximately 12 to 15 minutes, depending on number of servings being baked and how well done you like your eggs. Check the eggs after about 10 minutes baking time. When done, the whites should be completely set and the yolks beginning to thicken but not hard.
• Do not use a gas oven. Use an electric oven instead.
