Just because something is old fashioned, doesn't mean it's not still great! Soft Boiled Eggs for breakfast is a timeless classic! These are what I crave for breakfast on cold, winter mornings!

📝 Ingredients

  • 4 large eggs, (cold)
  • 2 cups water

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1Use a small sauce pan large enough to hold the four large eggs in a single layer.
  2. 2Add just enough water to the saucepan so that there is just 1-1.5 inches of water in the pan once the eggs are added.
  3. 3Cover the saucepan and bring the water to a boil over high heat.
  4. 4Once the water is boiling, remove the eggs from your refrigerator and place them gently into the boiling water.
  5. 5Place the cover back onto the saucepan and allow the eggs to boil for exactly 5 minutes.
  6. 6Remove the eggs from the boiling water and place directly into a bowl of ice cold water for 1 minute.
  7. 7Place each egg into an egg cup and serve with your choice of sides.
