> 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
> 8 slices white or whole-wheat sandwich bread
> 6 slices bacon
> 6 large eggs
> Coarse salt and ground pepper
> Directions
> 1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly butter 6 standard muffin
> cups. With a rolling pin, flatten bread slices slightly and, with a 4
> 1/4-inch cookie cutter, cut into 8 rounds. Cut each round in half,
> then press 2 halves into each muffin cup, overlapping slightly and
> making sure bread comes up to edge of cup. Use extra bread to patch
> any gaps. Brush bread with remaining butter.

> 2. In a large skillet, cook bacon over medium, until almost
> crisp, 4 minutes, flipping once. (It will continue to cook in the
> oven.) Lay 1 bacon slice in each bread cup and crack an egg over each.
> Season with salt and pepper. Bake until egg whites are just set, 20 to
> 25 minutes. Run a small knife around cups to loosen toasts. Serve
> immediately.

> Cook's Note
> Standard muffin pans come in 6- or 12-cup size; if baking 6 items in a
> 12-cup pan, leave empty space in between. Nonstick pans are nice but
> not essential. Beware of very thin pans, which often lead to burning.
> Place pans on a baking sheet to make them easier to get in and out of
> the oven.
