If you are in the mood for a bit of a Points splurge for an absolutely delicious and decadent breakfast recipe, then this Baked Egg Bread Boat Recipe is just the ticket.
I came across this recipe at Spoon Fork Bacon, and decided to play around with it a bit to make it more Weight Watchers friendly. Just a few small changes and my Baked Egg Bread Boat turned out SO good! For 9 Points you get an entire sourdough demi baguette filled with baked egg whites, cheese, and veggies.
Seriously delicious.
It can be a little tricky getting the right cut into the bread…I plan on attempting this recipe a few more times to see if I can do it better and get a better picture. But overall, it’s really an easy breakfast or brunch recipe to make and the flavors and textures are incredible. I can’t wait to make this again!
This is a wonderful Weight Watchers breakfast idea for those days when you need your carb fix. Enjoy!
Baked Egg Bread Boat Recipe
Equipment
- 1 Oven
Ingredients
- 4 demi sourdough baguettes
- ½ cup liquid egg whites
- 2 tbsp fat free half and half
- 2 oz lean ham - diced
- 2 green onions - chopped
- ¼ cup mushrooms - diced
- ½ cup reduced fat swiss cheese - shredded
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Cut a deep “V” shape into the baguettes and pull out most of the bread inside.
- In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the egg whites and half and half. Add in the remaining ingredients and season with salt and pepper.
- Place each bread “boat” onto a baking sheet, and evenly divide the egg mixture into each one, slowly pouring it into the hollowed-out “V”.
- Bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until bread becomes golden brown, and egg mixture is cooked through and set.
- Remove from oven and let cool for about 5 minutes. Serve immediately.
