How to Make Eggs in a Mason Jar Lid
The BEST part about this egg recipe is that you can walk away from the eggs while they are cooking. When you fry or scramble eggs the traditional way, you certainly can’t do that!
We love baking eggs in mason jar lids on busy mornings. Who can’t use an extra 10 minutes to get ready while breakfast is cooking? This is also a great way to serve eggs over easy to a large group while saving lots of time in the kitchen.
Did you know that these mason jar eggs fit perfectly over an English muffin? I love it when two things go together like that. It’s almost as if they were meant to be! Check out my other fun breakfast recipes.

Ingredients
- Eggs
- Non-stick spray (or butter)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325°F
- Prepare a mason jar lid with non-stick spray or butter to prevent sticking.
- Place the mason jar lids upside down on a baking sheet.
- Crack 1 egg into each mason jar lid.
- Bake the eggs for 10-15 minutes or until they start to bubble.
- Remove the eggs from the oven and let them cool for a minute or so on the baking sheet.
- Using a protective oven mitt, remove the eggs from the lids (they will slide right out!). If an egg needs a little help sliding out, a simple butter knife around the edge of the mason jar will do the trick.
