Make the most perfect hard-boiled eggs in the oven with this super simple recipe. After trying this, you will never make hard-boiled eggs any other way!
Ice bath - add some ice cubes to a large bowl and fill it with cold water.
After 30 minutes, remove the eggs in the oven with heat-resistant oven mitts. Put the eggs in the ice water for 10 minutes. This ice bath quickly cools the eggs and stops the cooking process.
Remove the shells from the eggs and enjoy!
Notes
Take note that there will be a tiny little brown spot on the bottom of each egg where it was laying in the muffin pan. Don't worry, that is normal and there is nothing wrong with the egg. The egg is safe to eat. Try lining the muffin pan with aluminum foil to avoid the brown spots. More info about that is in the post.
You can use a smaller 6-cup muffin pan to hard-boil 6 eggs if 12 is too much for you.
Hard-boiled eggs with shells still on them can last up to 7 days in the refrigerator, and about 3 days if the shells are removed.
