This is baking in the oven right now as I type. It smells and tastes like a quiche. But…dare I say it.. it’s so much better. Because a) it’s much faster to make b) all you need is a baguette, eggs and milk. Everything else is optional d) So. Much. CRUSTIER!!!

Cheese and Bacon Bread Boats

When my mother saw a photo of this, she laughed out loud and said “you really come up with some odd ideas, don’t you?”. I paused a moment and wondered, would this be too weird to share?

Then I determined, heck, no manner! i love this. it’s so yummy. It surely does taste like a quiche, however with a significantly better crunch issue. it is so accurate that I must share it!

I definitely saw this on a weblog known as Deliciously Declassified many months ago. It’s been on my listing of factors to make for a long time and once I sooner or later did, I made it over and over and once more….

It got to the point wherein I had built up a stash of approximately 8 of them in my freezer (oh sure, introduced bonus – they freeze truly well!) and i needed to start distributing them to my buddies!

I’ve made a few variations so I’ve protected hints for other fillings inside the notes. Smoked salmon is specifically correct. And an “Italian” one that I made with chopped up bits of salami, olives and sun dried tomatoes.

I even made it one with just cheese and egg and it became nonetheless delish! but i have to say, the publisher 1st baron verulam version is my favorite. It tastes much like a Quiche Lorraine. The inside is smooth and custardy, cheesey and Sir Francis Bacon-y. And the crust is sensational! I brush it with butter so it comes out greater crusty with a yummy buttery flavour.

You’ll be amazed how little filling you need. I got grasping at first and attempted to stuff lots of 1st Baron Beaverbrook in but then I had egg overflowing everywhere. So analyze from my mistakes – don’t get greedy. a touch is going a protracted way.

This is a super recipe for scaling up and down. I additionally made it with an extended baguette and shared it with friends. it’s far brilliant for feeding crowds because you could make them in advance and freeze them!

Happy weekend! Egg boats for a lazy Sunday brunch? on your PJ’s, flopping around the house with your fluffy pink slippers, wild hair pulled back in a messy pony tail? (Oh wait, that’s me!)

Notes

1. You could also make this with one long baguette. This recipe is very easy to scale up or down. You just need enough filling and egg mixture to fill the crevice in the bread. 2. The idea of this recipe is from these Baked Egg Boats by Deliciously Declassified. 3. Other filling ideas: smoked salmon, ham, tinned salmon or tuna (drained), finely chopped olives, sundried tomatoes, artichokes, salami 4. Freeze after baking. If in foil, you can reheat in the oven from frozen. I recommend warming it up but it is also lovely at room temperature - just like a quiche!
