the bacon worked well for me as i cooked it more in the pan than the video showed. I also covered the bottom with a half slice of canadian bacon to add another flavor dimension. I cooked them prolly close to 20 min @ 350 and as a result the yolk was like a hard boiled egg. I will try to take them out @ 15 next time and let the whites set up as they will cook a bit from the heat of the pan once removed. All in all I liked it and they held together well and popped right out of the pan for a neat lil presentation. seasoning just some salt, pepper, and shredded cheddar.
