The easiest thing to do when making eggs in the oven is to preheat it first to 350F degrees and wait for it to come to temp. Don’t rush this process or you might end up with a soft boiled egg multiplied by several if you do. Once the oven comes to temperature, add your eggs to your muffin pan (one in each muffin cups) and place it in the oven to bake.
How Long to Cook Hard Boiled Eggs in the Oven
Takes anywhere from 20-25 minutes. (Some people leave them in for 30 minutes to ensure that they’re hard-boiled without issues) Once they’re done, you remove and can begin to start peeling. Want to make an entire breakfast? On another shelf put bacon in the oven on a sheet pan and you’ll have both to enjoy.
How do you cool a boiled egg?
Once you remove the eggs from the oven, you’re going to want to get them cooled down to make them easy to peel. The easiest way to do this is to grab a large bowl, use the running water from your faucet and fill it about halfway full with cold water, and set the eggs right inside. This will cool them down in a quick method so that you can easily peel them without worry. This trick works with fresh eggs as well as eggs that have been sitting on the shelves for a while as well.
Do hard-boiled eggs in the shell need to be refrigerated?
Yes, it doesn’t matter if eggs are in their shell or not because once you hard boil them, they have to be stored in the fridge from then on. It’s fine to leave perfect hard boiled eggs out for a short amount of time to cool down but the rest of the time they need to be kept cool to be able to eat.
You actually can! If you’ve ever peeled an egg and noticed a green look around the center of the yolk, this is a good indicator that you’ve overcooked your eggs. They’re still safe to eat but many people are turned off by the look of that extra green ring. Some people say that the taste varies too if they’re overcooked but that just varies on each person’s tastebuds.
If you’re worried about salmonella in eggs, you can overcome that worry by cooking your eggs to a temperature of 160 degrees. Using a thermometer will help you determine that the temperature has been met and is safe for consumption.
No, these would be too old to eat and should be thrown out. Once eggs are hard-boiled, you can enjoy them for up to 7 days as long as they’re kept in the fridge during that time. If you’re unsure of the date of an egg, don’t take the risk of eating it. It’s better to be safe than sorry. This timespan is also true if you hard boil your egg and don’t peel it right away as well. Boiled eggs can stay in their shell for consumption later for up to a 7 day time period, too.
How to fix hard boiled eggs that aren’t done
No matter what method you use if you notice that they are still runnier than you would like you can fix it. Just scoop what you have into a mug and microwave for 30 seconds, check. If you need more time add another 1/2 of a minute.
Why are my hard-boiled eggs hard to peel?
We’ve all been there, right? No matter what we do, those darn eggs just won’t peel like they’re supposed to. When that happens, just know that sometimes it’s just the way it is. There are some people that say fresh eggs are harder to peel than older eggs. It really all just comes down to the membrane. It connects the internal portion of the egg to the shell. I will say white eggs are much easier to peel than brown!
If you notice that some of your eggs aren’t peeling very well, it actually might not be anything that you’re doing wrong. Waiting a few days before peeling eggs after boiling them. This might help in loosing up the membrane so the shell is easier to come off.
