Portobello Mushroom Baked Eggs Recipe – 3 Ways

April 28, 2017 by Samantha
Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Portobello Mushrooms Baked Eggs 3 Ways is surprisingly easy, yet full of flavour dish that will please a crowd. Pick your favourite flavour or mix it up if serving for brunch. Goat’s cheese and Dill, Leek and Prosciutto, and Tomato Avocado are all irresistible and perfect for this Baked Eggs recipe. 

Portobello Mushroom Baked Eggs 3 Ways | My Kitchen Love

This recipe is actually the idea from one of my almost 4-year-old twins. We walked by the Portobello mushrooms at the grocery store and since she’s obsessed with mushrooms, we stopped and looked at the different varieties.

I’ve never made Portobello Mushrooms for her before so she picked one up and asked if I could get it and make it for her. I gladly said yes. She suggested we have it with eggs and the idea was born.

Portobello Mushroom Baked Eggs with Goat's Cheese and Dill | My Kitchen Love

It all started with this version above, Goat’s Cheese and Dill. A perfect Spring flavour to awaken taste buds at breakfast or brunch. 

Creamy goat’s cheese with the right amount of cheesy tang, paired with fresh vibrant dill that complements the baked egg without overpowering it.

Portobello Mushroom Baked Eggs with Leeks, Prosciutto and Thyme | My Kitchen Love

Leek and prosciutto is one of my favourite flavour combinations. Subtle onion/garlic flavour from the leeks with salty thin and crispy prosciutto.

You could dive right into bacon town here, but I love how prosciutto gives a big impact with very little effort and amount.

How to tell if eggs are cooked:

The white around the yellow yolk should appear firm. If you can’t tell from observing the egg white, the easiest way to tell if a baked egg is done is to insert a knife into the egg white, an inch or so from the yolk, and if the knife comes out clean, the egg is done cooking. 

Portobello Mushroom Baked Eggs with Tomato and Avocado | My Kitchen Love

I feel like this version is my little West Coast baby. Can’t go wrong with a little avocado and tomato action in my opinion.

What to serve with a baked eggs recipe:

I served the portobello eggs with this fruit salad and english muffins, no longer a low carb egg recipe, but it definitely high on flavour.

Oh and coffee! What’s breakfast (or brunch) without coffee? Coffee = life around here and sometimes I make it my personal mission to drink as much coffee as I can on the weekends. Gotta stay fresh for staying up 30 minutes later than usual! 😉

    I made this with chopped pancetta and spinach on the bottom, topped it with shredded parm and chives. Delicious. I think next weekend I’m going to do a version with smoked salmon, cream cheese, and tomatoes.
