Egg Sammies For A Crowd Recipes

SHEET-PAN BACON EGG SANDWICHES FOR A CROWD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spread the bacon pieces in a single layer on an 18-by-13-inch sheet pan and drizzle with vegetable oil. Bake until crisp and lightly browned, about 15 minutes, stirring halfway through. Remove the pan from the oven but do not drain the fat or remove the bacon. Reduce the oven temperature to 300 degrees.
• Meanwhile, whisk the eggs, half-and-half, scallions, 2 teaspoons salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper together in a large bowl. Redistribute the bacon evenly on the sheet pan, then pour the egg mixture over and top with tomatoes and cheese. Return the pan to the oven, being careful not to spill, and bake until the eggs are just set, about 25 minutes.
• Let the eggs cool 5 minutes before cutting. Meanwhile, warm the buns in the oven on a separate baking sheet. Use a knife or pizza cutter to cut the eggs into 16 even portions and place them between the bun halves. Serve the sandwiches with hot sauce on the side.

BAKED HAM, EGG AND CHEESE BREAKFAST SANDWICHES FOR A CROWD

Steps:

• Position a rack in the lower third of the oven. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Place two 2-foot-long pieces of nonstick aluminum foil next to each other so the long sides are just touching. Pinch the edges together and then fold them over several times to seal and form one large piece of foil. Line a rimmed baking sheet with the foil and set aside.
• Crack the eggs into a large bowl and whisk well. Add the scallions, 1 teaspoon salt and 2 tablespoons water and whisk to combine.
• Split the whole pack of attached dinner rolls in half horizontally using a serrated knife. Set aside.
• Add 1 tablespoon of butter to the prepared baking sheet and place in the oven to melt, about 3 minutes. Spread the butter all over the foil with a pastry brush and then pour in the egg mixture. Place the attached roll halves cut-side down and side by side on top of the eggs and return to the oven. Bake until the eggs are completely set, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, butter another baking sheet with the remaining 1 tablespoon butter. Using heatproof mitts, top the rolls with this baking sheet and invert the whole thing. Remove the top baking sheet and peel back the foil. Top half the eggs with the cheese and the other half with the ham. Bake until the cheese is melted, about 5 minutes.
• Using a large metal hamburger spatula, flip the bottom half of the rolls onto the other half, so the rolls are top-side up. Cut or pull the rolls apart. Serve with hot sauce.

GIANT S'MORE FOR A CROWD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a 13-by-18-inch rimmed baking sheet with parchment.
• Knead the graham cracker crumbs into the cookie dough. Roll out the dough mixture on top of a sheet of parchment to a 12-by-8-inch rectangle. Use a knife to trim and square the sides, then divide into two 6-by-8-inch pieces. Transfer the cookies to the prepared baking sheet, leaving at least 2 inches between them. Bake until golden, 12 to 15 minutes.
• While the cookies are still warm, use a skewer to create 2 intersecting dotted lines on top of each cookie. Poke 11 small holes in each of the 4 quadrants created by the intersecting lines to mimic store-bought graham crackers. Cool on the baking sheet, about 30 minutes.
• Set aside one of the cookies. Cover the remaining cookie on the baking sheet with the chocolate bars and top with the marshmallows. Brown the marshmallows with a kitchen blowtorch until nicely toasted (or, alternatively, broil on low until the marshmallows are nicely toasted, 2 to 3 minutes). Top with the remaining cookie. Squish and break into large pieces to serve.

BAKED EGGS FOR A CROWD

Steps:

• Heat oven to 500 degrees. Butter a shallow 1 1/2-quart shallow baking dish (square or round). Pour cream in the prepared pan and sprinkle the cubed butter over the top. Add any cooked meat or vegetables, if using. Crack the eggs around the pan and season with nutmeg, salt, and pepper.
• Bake until the whites are set and the yolks are still a bit runny, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the heat, sprinkle with herbs and more flaky salt, and serve immediately, piping hot, with toasted bread or English muffins and shallow bowls. Drizzle the cream over the top.

BUFFET-STYLE FLUFFY OVEN SCRAMBLED EGGS FOR A CROWD

Steps:

• Set oven to 350 degrees F (set oven rack to lowest position).
• Spray a 13 x 9-inch glass baking pan with cooking spray then pour the melted butter into the pan.
• In a bowl whisk eggs and salt until smooth and well blended.
• Gradually whisk in the half and half and milk; pour into the baking pan.
• Bake uncovered for 10 minutes.
• Remove the pan from the oven then stir the eggs; return to oven and bake another 15-20 minutes or until the eggs are just set (to insure soft fluffy eggs do not overbake as the eggs will cook more after removing from the oven).
• Serve immediately.
