Easy microwaved egg!


 I like to microwave an egg in a cup for a quick breakfast with a slice of buttered toast.  Simply oil or butter the cup to prevent sticking, crack an egg into it.  Add salt and pepper to taste.  Microwave 30-35 seconds and it comes out over easy!  My sister says hers exploded at 35 seconds, it may depend on your microwave,  I always put my microwave cover on top just in case, but it is worth a try don't you think?

Exploding after 35 seconds. LOL. That does not sound so good

Don't have a microwave...cooking eggs in a pan very easy too.

A great start to the morning..but I am sure I would have to go for 40 seconds my microwave is old. I will have to do some testing.

They are so tricky in the microwave!
I just saw my eggs in a cloud photos, working on my 2023 calendar. That's a fun recipe, as well.

I never thought cooking eggs in a pan was a chore.

LOL>...cleaning up an exploded egg in the micro would be a pain!

That sounds easy. I use a special gadget bought on Amazon.

I'm going to have to try this. If I can keep from heating my stove, I can save electricity and money, too.

I was microwaving an egg one time when it exploded so vigorously it flew out of the cup and landed on the microwave turntable!

I have not tried making eggs this way. Could be something worth looking into.

A nice and simple recipe.

I'm going to try it out so I can use this hack when I'm in a hotel with a microwave.

Oh thank you for this. I never think of using the Micro for eggs.

I think I tried this years ago without success, perhaps it's time to try again.

I've tried to microwave an egg before and it was disastrous, so I am going to try this recipe. Thanks for sharing it Christine :)

Thank you dear Christine. This is good addition to my knowledge. My microwave heat up cup of milk or tea at thrifty five seconds perfectly

My mother used to make scrambled eggs in a bowl in the microwave. They always came out nice and fluffy.
