Oven Baked Hard Boiled Eggs // If you need to boil a large batch of eggs all at once or if you haven't been able to master the stove-top boiling method, then you MUST try these super simple oven baked eggs! | Tried and Tasty When I stumbled upon this ‘recipe’ for oven baked hard boiled eggs on Pinterest I thought it was too good to be true. I’ve had the same hand-written post-it note of my mom’s instructions on how to hard boil an egg taped to my fridge for over five years. Her’s always turn out awesome, and even with her directions I sometimes struggle. For whatever reason I just can’t seem to get it right. I usually over cook them rather than under-cook them, but I hardly cook them perfectly. I love hard boiled eggs! Perfect snacks and great on salads of course. I was excited to give this a try. 

Ever since I discovered this method it’s the only way I make hard boiled eggs. I’m telling you. It is SO easy! I love not having to babysit the boiling water and making sure I start the time when I’m supposed to or covering it when I’m supposed to, or uncovering it. You get the idea. Plus, with the oven method you can boil a bunch at the same time with ease. Especially if you get one of these nifty 24-Cup Mega Muffin Pans. That’s PERFECT for your Easter egg hunts right? You can boil a whole dozen or two all at once.  All you need for the perfect set up is a glass mixing bowl, ice cube trays, and an egg/mushroom slicer! Then you’ll be set!

Recipe Notes

I have tried this in a mini muffin tin as well as a regular sized muffin tin and I prefer the regular sized. The mini will leave a dark ring around your egg (which is fine), but the larger tin will leave a perfectly white egg!

    I have been using this method for a couple of years. As with another reader, I too ended up with a brown spot on the egg where it sat in the pan. I now add water half way up the egg in each hole and no more brown spots.

  2. Sally

    Just tried and they taste great! I did notice when I peeled them they had a small brown dot which looked like a burn mark. Have you noticed that at all with yours? Either way they tasted great and just cut out the small mark.

    1. Yvonne

      Glad you liked them. They will have those on some of them and won’t on others. I’ve run into that when I’ve made them. I peel that little bit off just as you did!

    I really messed up my boiled Easter eggs this year using an unfamiliar stove and undercooked 4 dozen eggs!!!! My kids had a blast dying and decorating and when my son opened several and found out they weren’t cooked!!!! I have to try something, so in the oven they go….I’ll let you know if it works. (They have been kept in the frig)

    Have you used fresh eggs or only store bought? My concern is that fresh eggs are not as easy to peel. Great idea though. :)

    1. Yvonne

      I’ve only used store bought, but I have some fresh eggs I could try it with – that’s a great question. I’ll let you know when I experiment with them :)

    2. Agnes Nolan

      Take a glass, add about an inch or two of water, put a cooked egg in the glass, put your hand over the top of the glass and shake. The egg shell comes away easily. Never tried it with oven cooked eggs, but it works with the ones you boil. I got this idea from the internet. Works for me.

    Way too easy! Lol. I’m going to try this tomorrow when we dye eggs. (My granddaughter 20 yrs old and I do it every year:) ). Thanks for the info, it’s awesome:)

      Almost too good to be true with how easy they are – but it’s not, it’s really just that easy! Hope you tried it and loved it as much as I do!!

    1. Yvonne

      Oh no! Really? That’s never happened to me. Out of the 10-12 times I’ve used this method, I’ve never had one egg crack on me. I wonder if maybe you would need to try a little lower temp for yours? Maybe your oven runs a little hotter than mine? Did the others turn out ok??
