4 eggs
Olive oil
Salt and pepper

Directions:
Begin by preheating the oven to 200 C/ 400F . Grease 4 compartments of a muffin tin with olive oil. Wrap a piece of bacon snugly into the muffin tin. Cut off the excess bacon. Use the extra bit of bacon for the bottom of the cup. You basically want a neat cup of bacon with no gaps. Continue to line the other three muffin cups. Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and precook the bacon for 5 -7 minutes.
When the bacon is just beginning to crisp up, remove from the oven. I recommended that you separate the egg whites from the egg yolks (an easy way to do this is to use a baster to suck up the yolk out of the egg white). Carefully put an egg yolk in each of the bacon cups and then tops with the egg white. It’s likely that you won’t need all the egg white, so that’s why it’s better to separate the eggs first.
Once the eggs are in the bacon, place the muffin tin back in the oven and cook for about 15 minutes. It may take less, but you want to make sure the egg whites are firm before removing from the oven. Season with salt, pepper and paprika and serve.
