These bruschetta baked eggs are the perfect weekend brunch addition. Sweet sauteed tomatoes mixed with lots of garlic, basil, and oregano and topped with eggs and Parmesan cheese.
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.
