Freezing cooked eggs.

Has anyone done this successfully?

I read somewhere how to make an egg Mc Muffin type of breakfast. Large muffin tins were used. They were greased and an egg was broken into each cup. The eggs were baked until solid and the sandwich was put together.

I was wondering if each round egg could be frozen, defrosted and then used.

Any thoughts?

Well, back to the drawing board!

I cracked an egg into a greased large muffin tin and baked it at 350 for maybe 13 minutes. Took it out, cooled it and froze it solid. then, I defrosted it.

The texture was icky and the taste was...not good.

I just break the eggs into a bowl--whip them up with a fork and pour them into freezer bags to use for omlettes or scrambled eggs. They taste fine but they are frozen raw not cooked.

That egg was so bad that the outside cats wouldn't eat it.

DH said that the raccoon probably drank poison to get the taste of it out of their mouths.

If you look at my blog link ( which I haven't updated in forever) I made them and DH liked them. He said they are comparable to the store bought Jimmy dean only better biscuits and better with bacon.

I have frozen cooked scrambled eggs--they were okay too. A plain fried egg is more like rubber.

Sorry Ardie, just saw this today, but Merks' blog post looks like a good one. I used to make these all the time, but if you don't mix the eggs up some the whites will be awful, lol.

I completely beat all my eggs up with a fork in a batter bowl, then poured an equal amount into each muffin cup. Other than that, I made them just like Merks' post, except I used homemade biscuits. Sometimes I used ham or sausage instead of bacon, sometimes cheese, and sometimes I'd mix salsa and finely minced sauteed onion and bell pepper in the eggs for a Mexican style biscuit.

I used to make two dozen at a time when I had a teenage son at home. He and his friends loved them! They could just pull as many out of the bag as they wanted, microwave and go.

When my kids lived at home I would beat a couple dozen eggs then pour onto greased cookie tray bake until done cut into biscuit size squares get a small peice of lunchmeat ham and a slice of cheese put all this on the biscuit or english muffin or even toast and breakfast is served kept them froze and put in fridge night before so they would heat quicker
