Let’s make some eggs! Believe it or not, how to make hard-boiled eggs is a common question. In fact, the last time I checked, this was # 4 on the Top Google Search list. Wow, that is really high on the list so today, I will share two ways to make hard-boiled eggs.
Option 1: The non-traditional way - Baking them in the oven
- Ingredients:
- Eggs
- Water
Directions:
- Place the eggs into a sauce pan and cover with water
- You want a pan big enough to allow the eggs to move around a little bit
- I am using a 2 quart sauce pan (approximately ten (10) eggs will fit)
- Bring to a boil over high heat
- Once the water is boiling, set a timer
- Soft-boiled: 7 minutes
- Hard-boiled: 10 minutes
- While the eggs are boiling, make an ice bath in a large bowl
- Fill the bowl about half way with ice and cover with cold water
- When the timer goes off, turn off the heat
- Transfer the eggs into the ice bath
- Once the ice has melted, dump the water and peal the eggs
Option 2: The non-traditional way - Baking them in the oven
Ingredients
- Eggs
Directions:
- Pre-heat oven to 325°
- Place the eggs unto the oven rack

- Fill the bowl about half way with ice and cover with cold water
