How to hard boil perfect eggs in the oven - Family Fresh Meals

I love hard boiled eggs.

Why don’t I make them all the time? Well, the thought of getting a big old pot of water boiling, and then timing the boiling, flame on, flame off,  lid on , lid off…. UGH!

Half the time I end up timing something wrong, and end up with over cooked, hard to peel eggs. OMG…. peeling hard boiled eggs is the pits!So when I kept seeing the idea on Pinterest, of hard boiling eggs in the oven, I HAD to give it a try.

Ok people. This is a game changer. Eggs go in the oven for 30 minutes, then in a bowl of ice water to cool. That’s IT! You wanna know the BEST part? The peel practically slides off in one piece. I kid you not!

    Because I live in an apartment, I always use an oven thermometer when I use my oven. The first eggs I cooked this way were perfect. That oven thermometer saves me a lot of grief!
