Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Baked Egg Boats
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Slice off the tops of the bread, hollowing out the insides for the boat shape.
  2. Cook chopped turkey bacon in a skillet over medium heat for 5–7 minutes until crispy. Add diced bell peppers and spinach, sauté for 3–4 minutes.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together 4–6 eggs with 1/4 cup of milk until light and airy. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. Spoon turkey bacon and vegetable filling into the hollowed bread, then pour the egg mixture on top, allowing some room for expansion.
  5. Bake the egg boats on a baking sheet for 30–35 minutes or until the egg is set and tops are golden brown.
  6. Remove from the oven and cool for a few minutes before serving. Optionally, garnish with fresh herbs.
