Wouldn't recognize a coddled egg if you saw one? It's simply eggs cooked gently in custard cups or lidded ceramic coddling cups, usually in a hot water bath. Brits love their coddled eggs served with crisp toast "fingers" for dunking into the yolks. This version features spinach, and savory bacon and cheddar cheese. All that you have to do is divide the ingredients among custard cups or ramekins and let them bake away in the oven until the eggs are set, which should take about 20 minutes. This recipe is a fun, unique twist on your morning eggs that you'll find yourself making again and again.
