I just made these baked eggs, Bloody Marys and boozy french toast (with Grand Marnier). My boyfriend, Alex, is quite the food critic, but said it was the best breakfast I had ever made for him.

I did take the other reader's recommendation for covering with foil for the first 20 minutes, and then baking uncovered for the last 10 minutes, and it came out beautifully.

It's a weird message to send to your viewers. So first things first try the great recipe but if you can't hack it there's at least there's a solid plan B for you.

Baked Eggs w/ Spinach, Buttermilk Biscuits, the Whole Wheat Apple Muffins.... it was outrageously good! I got my Bloody Mary recipe from Jasper White's Summer Shack cook book; the main differences were the juice of 1 lemon and 2 limes and several tablespoons of Old Bay (added to 1Q of tomato juice), along with the standard Bloody Mary ingredients. Anyway, the brunch was fabulous-- thanks for the recipes and inspiration, Happy Mother's Day! Our Mother’s Day brunch was straight-up Smitten style!

I didn't do the Bloody Mary because it is just a Wednesday morning and I only made this for myself, so the beverage seemed a bit too decadent. However, I scaled this down for one person and made the eggs and the biscuits and they were awesome. I actually used cake flour for the biscuits, because I had some leftover and wow! it makes light and perfectly tender biscuits. I actually rolled and cut mine into squares (so as to not waste any dough) and they are very tender and fluffy. Also, I made mine in cast iron (which is what I cook in about 90% of the time) and had no issues. I saw no problem - no bitter greens, no damage to the pan (like tomatoes sometimes can cause) so I think as long as your pan is well seasoned, you should be fine. Oh my gawd this is awesomeness.

I have a question though. I put the rest of the biscuits on a baking sheet and in the freezer, can I just stick them straight in the over when my friends arrive?

Made them this morning for my hubby's bday breakfast and, we're still swoonin' over how perfectly-flaky, soft & tasty they are. Didn't have buttermilk so, swapped out 1tbsp. white vinegar and enough milk to fill the rest of the cup. OMG Deb–these biscuits are divine.
