Farmers Market Spring Egg Bake

April 15, 2014 by Brett Youmans 2 Comments

Farmers Market Spring Egg Bake It’s been a couple of productive weeks working in the garden and I’ll be posting an update about the progress soon.  While it will be a while before I can actually enjoy any spring goodness from my own garden, I’m lucky enough to have an excellent farmers market nearby.  Most of the vendors are from a large Amish community and they offer everything from beautiful baked goods to perfect cuts of grass fed beef, free range chickens and eggs, and picture perfect produce.

Whether you like your yolks hard-cooked or warm and gooey, this farmers market inspired easy baked egg recipe is certain to please — you can’t go wrong with simple, straightforward ingredients in this classic French dish.  My Farmers Market Spring Egg Bake is as easy as it is delicious and can be assembled in advance then popped into the oven and ready in less than 15 minutes.

You know you’re going to have some ham left over from Easter brunch so print this recipe out and be sure to make it soon!

Here’s what you’ll need:

Farmers Market Spring Egg Bake

Heat olive oil and butter in a medium skillet over medium-high heat.  Add garlic and shallot and sauté until softened, about 2 minutes.  Add green and hot peppers, ham, and drained potatoes; cook until heated through and potatoes begin to brown.  Add the asparagus and cook for an additional minute until the asparagus is bright green.

Farmers Market Spring Egg Bake

Divide mixture into 2 shallow dishes or ramekins.  Make a slight indentation in center of mixture and crack egg into the indentation.  Drizzle each with 1 tablespoon of heavy cream.

Farmers Market Spring Egg Bake

Bake 12-15 minutes rotating pan halfway through or until desired doneness.  Enjoy and Happy Easter!

Beets are one of the first things I get planted in the garden every year. Depending on the variety, they’re ready from seed to table in about 60 days. While we mostly associate this versatile vegetable with its deeply hued taproot, did you know the leaves are also edible? As they grow to maturity in the garden, I enjoy clipping the leaves for fresh crisp salads and quick stir-fry dishes. GreenThumbWhiteApron.com

Photo of jelly jars filled with Lavender-Strawberry Jam Spritzer Cocktail. We make strawberry jam every year and always have it on hand so it seemed natural to use it as a sweeter in this cocktail. When mixed together with a bit of lavender syrup, vanilla infused vodka, and club soda, you’ve got something quite special. GreenThumbWhiteApron.com
Strawberry blossoms are an indication of a heavy crop this year.
Perfect Steamed Eggs! The only sure-fire trick is to use old eggs. As eggs age, they gradually lose moisture through the pores in their shell and the air pocket at the tip expands. The pH of the whites also changes, going from a low pH to a relatively high pH, which makes them adhere less strongly to the shell. Farm-fresh eggs will always be tricky to age. Ideally, buy your eggs a week or two before you plan to boil them and let them age in the fridge.
