Bake to Perfection: Bake until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still slightly runny, about 12-15 minutes. Adjust baking time to your preference.
For a richer flavor, consider using Gruyère or a blend of cheeses.
Add finely chopped chives or parsley as a garnish for a touch of freshness.
If you prefer a fully cooked yolk, bake for a few extra minutes. Monitor closely to prevent overcooking.
For a vegetarian option, substitute the bacon with sautéed mushrooms or spinach.
