Ingredients

• 2 eggs
• salt and ground black pepper to taste
• ⅓ cup shredded Cheddar cheese
• 1 slice bacon
• 2 tablespoons butter, divided
• 1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley, or to taste
• 2 large potatoes
• 2 pinches chopped fresh parsley, or to taste

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat an oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Prick potatoes several times with a fork and place onto a baking sheet.

Step 2

Bake in the preheated oven until potatoes are easily pierced with a fork, 50 minutes to 1 hour.

Step 3

While potatoes bake, place bacon in a skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon on paper towels. Let cool 10 minutes. Crumble.

Step 4

Remove potatoes from the oven and let cool 10 minutes.

Step 5

Slice tops off of potatoes and scoop out insides to form a deep bowl. Add 1/2 tablespoon butter, 1 pinch parsley, salt, and pepper to each potato.

Step 6

Crack an egg into each potato. Top each with an additional 1/2 tablespoon butter. Divide bacon and Cheddar cheese between the 2 potato bowls.

Step 7

Bake potatoes in the preheated oven until eggs are set, 15 to 20 minutes. Sprinkle each with 1/2 teaspoon parsley.
