Breakfast Pies

Makes 4 large pies

4 slices shortcut bacon, chopped

2 green onions, sliced

4 eggs

4 slices bread, buttered on one side and crusts removed

Preheat a pie maker.

In a frying pan, sauté bacon over medium heat, stirring, for 2 minutes.

Add shallots and cook for 2 minutes, stirring often.

Press the bread slices, buttered-side down, into each pie hole

Sprinkle with bacon mixture.

Crack one egg into each, sprinkle with more bacon mixture, and season with salt & pepper.

Close the lid and cook for 8 minutes, or until the crust is gold and the egg cooked.

Notes:

This is made in a pie maker, but you can probably use a large muffin pan and bake at 180C.

For a vegetarian option, use diced mushrooms instead of bacon and use a little olive oil to sauté.
