Eggjabökur

Egg cakes

For this recipe you use “beikon”, i.e. bacon in thin slices, fry them in the pan and then break them into small pieces before adding the spinach to the pan. Not exactly true to the original, I simply used bacon cubes for this recipe...


Ingredients for 9 muffins

1 Tbsp oil
1 chopped onion
100 g bacon
120 g frozen spinach

6 eggs
80 g grated cheese
1/2 tsp salt
1 pinch of pepper
1 pinch of chili powder


Preparation

Preheat the oven to 350 °F (180 °C) upper/lower heat.

Heat the oil in a pan and fry the bacon and onion. Add the frozen spinach and fry briefly.

Then whisk the eggs with the grated cheese in a large bowl. Stir in salt, pepper and a little bit of chili powder...

...and add the fried onions, bacon and spinach and stir in.

Pour the egg mixture into muffin cases (either with paper cases or preferably in silicone moulds) and bake in the preheated oven for approx. 15 - 20 minutes.

Allow to cool briefly, carefully remove from the mold and serve warm.
