These stuffed buns with eggs come together quickly, and are hearty and delicious with eggs, ham, and cheese. Since the buns are baked in the oven, they crisp up and the cheese becomes nice and gooey. Served alongside French fries, roasted potatoes, salad, and/or steamed vegetables, these buns make a wonderful dinner or even a quick and easy lunch.
To make the stuffed buns with eggs, you first cut a slit into each bun to create a hollow. Then, the buns get stuffed with eggs, bacon, ham, spinach, and cheese before being garnished with oregano and baked in the oven.
What are Stuffed Buns With Eggs?
Stuffed buns with eggs are hearty baked sandwiches that are filled with eggs, ham, bacon, and cheese. However, rather than being assembled in the traditional way, slit in half with the fillings in the middle, the buns are cut open on top to create a hollow before being filled with the fillings. It is essential to use crusty buns for this recipe as they will have the best texture once baked.
Pro Tips
- When you cut into the buns, use your fingers to create a hollow that you can add the fillings to.
- Finely chop the spinach so that it fits into the hollow of the buns easily.
- Use crusty buns which will crisp up nicely in the oven.
- Choose whatever type of meltable cheese you enjoy the most. Mozzarella, provolone, Swiss, or white cheddar are all excellent options in this recipe.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I Add Other Fillings to Stuffed Buns?
Yes, you can! Good options for fillings include sautéed mushrooms, wilted kale, or cooked meat like roast chicken or ground beef. You could also add other dried herbs to the buns if you prefer not to use dried oregano.
Can I Make Stuffed Buns With Eggs Without the Cheese?
Yes, if you are dairy-free or lactose intolerant, simply omit the cheese from the recipe. The buns will still be very delicious with just the eggs, ham, and bacon.
Can I Make Stuffed Buns With Eggs Ahead?
Yes, while these buns are best to serve as soon as they are made, you could definitely make them a day or two ahead and reheat them as needed for a quick meal. To reheat them, you can wrap them in foil before placing them in the oven, which should prevent them from overbrowning and the fillings from drying out.
