No More Boiling Eggs for Dyeing – Bake Instead!
Who else hates sitting and trying to find the perfect technique for boiling eggs for dyeing. Nope – that’s no needed, we are going to show you how to bake eggs in the oven fo Easter egg dyeing.
This simple technique is a game changer. Whether you are using this egg hack for Easter eggs or for anytime that you need hard boiled eggs. Forget boiling, just pop eggs into the oven. Let’s learn how.
Learn How To Bake Eggs
Baking eggs is super easy and PERFECT for dying Easter eggs. No more boiling eggs, we are baking eggs and getting the same results without having to monitor the boiling water on the stove top.
Here is what you do, it’s super simple:
Place eggs in muffin pans. I can typically fit 24 eggs in my oven to bake at a time. Unless I am boiling multiple pots for water for eggs, this isn’t happening on my stove top.
Once eggs are in the muffin pans, place in oven and bake on 325 – 350 degrees. My oven runs a little hot, so I keep it around 325 degrees.
Remove after 30 minutes, then place in eggs in a bowl of cold water.
Your eggs may come out with a small brown spot. With the cold water, this typically disappears.
Hot Eggs in a Bowl of Cold Water
Yes, the egg hack to de-shell an egg or peel an egg is to put the hot eggs into a bowl of cold water. I usually throw ice into a big bowl of water, then place your baked eggs right out of the oven into the bowl of ice cold water. You will want to let the eggs sit for around 10 minutes.
After the hard boiled eggs (or baked eggs – in this case) have been in the ice cold water for 10 minutes – you can then EASILY peel the eggs. No egg peel sticking with this trick!
