Eggs are so versatile and such a crowd-pleaser!

That makes them one of my favorite breakfast or brunch go-tos!

They’re packed with protein to keep you full, and easy to make enough to whip up an entire batch without breaking a sweat.

These bruschetta baked eggs come together super easily in just 1 pan, which means less cleanup for you. 

Imagine how impressed your guests will be when you come to the table with a warm pan of bubbly hot eggs, and sweet tomatoes and the herbaceous aroma of basil and oregano and pungent garlic fill the air. 

Spooned over a crispy slice of toast, these bruschetta baked eggs make the perfect brunch!

Ingredients for bruschetta baked eggs

  • Eggs – This is the star of our dish, our main source of protein.
  • Cherry tomatoes – These tomatoes are a perfect size for this dish and will burst with sweetness. 
  • Onion and garlic – Onion and garlic are classic additions and add a subtle earthy flavor.
  • Parmesan cheese – Parmesan cheese will give us salty and savory cheesiness. 
  • Herbs – Basil and oregano are classic floral, sweet flavors that will complement the tomatoes and parmesan.
  • Olive oil – Olive oil is our fat of choice here. Use a good, fruity olive oil here to add the most flavor.

Different types of bread

I serve this bruschetta baked eggs with slices of toast. 

My favorite is sourdough, but feel free to use your favorite! A multi-grain, nutty bread would be delicious here as well, or simple white bread too. 

You can also use your favorite gluten-free bread as well. 

Additional toppings

Don’t like Parmesan cheese? No worries! You could easily substitute a mild or sharp cheddar or provolone. 

If you’re looking to spice things up, feel free to add a sprinkle of red pepper flake to give it some heat.

Storage and leftovers

I suggest only making as much as you need for your serving, I do not recommend storing this in the refrigerator for later use.
