Ingredients
To make perfect egg soldiers, you will need the following ingredients:
– 4 large eggs
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– 2 tablespoons of butter
– 1/4 cup of milk
– 1/4 cup of breadcrumbs
– 1/4 cup of shredded cheese (optional)
– Cooking spray or oil for greasing the pan
Instructions
1. Begin by greasing a baking sheet with cooking spray or oil. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Crack the eggs into a bowl and beat them with a fork until well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
3. In a separate bowl, mix the breadcrumbs and shredded cheese (if using) together.
4. Dip each egg into the milk, ensuring it is fully coated. Then, dip the egg into the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to make sure the breadcrumbs stick.
5. Place the breaded egg onto the greased baking sheet. Repeat this process for the remaining eggs.
6. Once all the eggs are breaded, place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the eggs are golden brown and the breadcrumbs are crispy.
7. While the eggs are baking, melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Once melted, remove from heat and set aside.
8. Once the eggs are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Carefully cut the eggs in half lengthwise.
9. Place the egg halves on a plate and brush the melted butter over the top. You can also sprinkle a bit of salt and pepper for added flavor.
10. Serve the egg soldiers immediately while they are still warm and crispy.
And there you have it – perfect egg soldiers that are sure to delight everyone at your table. Enjoy your delicious breakfast or snack!
