Baked Egg Breakfast
This is a great breakfast to prepare on Christmas Eve, leaving you only to add the eggs and pop the pan into the oven to bake while you open gifts on Christmas morning. This is a Mills Family traditional Christmas Day breakfast we have done for years. We serve with a fruit salad and toast to have a healthy Christmas morning breakfast.
