This is a set so if you are a family of four, you can bake one egg in each cup at the same time.
I used a single serving stainless steel cup which is oven safe, but you may use any small sized oven safe single serving dish.
You basically just crack and slip an egg to the greased baking dish and bake it for few minutes until the yellow and white are cooked completely.
It is so easy to do and you don't need to use many utensils as you just need to use a single oven safe dish to bake the egg.
This method is especially very useful, if you are cooking something in the stove top and so the stove top is not free to fry an egg.

How Long To Bake Egg At 325 Degree Fahrenheit In The Oven?
The time for baking egg depends on a lot of factors like the baking cup you use, the temperature of the oven, the preferred texture of the baked egg etc.
In this recipe for easy baked egg at 325 degree Fahrenheit, we can bake the egg in a small baking cup or ramekin & it only takes around 12 to 15 minutes to bake the egg.
