Ingredients
Directions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F and grease a muffin tin with olive oil. Set aside.
- In a large pot, bring approximately 4 cups of water to a boil. Add the kale leaves and cook for about 1 minute. Have a large bowl of ice water standing by.
- When the Kale leaves have turned bright green and soft, remove from boiling water and immerse the leaves in the cold water to stop the cooking process.
- Remove the cooled leaves from the ice water and pat dry with a paper towel. Line each cup of the muffin tin with a large kale leaf (trimming the edges if necessary).
- Into each kale-lined cup, crack one egg. Sprinkle each with salt and pepper and bake for 20 minutes or until the egg is set.
- Remove each egg cup from the muffin tin and serve warm.
