Ingredients

4 eggs, separated
1/2 cup shredded coconut or,
1/2 cup grated goat cheese or grass-fed cheddar cheese
1/8 teaspoon of salt

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 450°F with a rack in the middle
Line a roasting pan, or baking sheet that can take high temperatures without warping, with parchment paper or Silpat
Separate whites and yolks, placing yolks in individual small mixing bowls
In a clean bowl beat egg whites and salt on low until they start to form and then increase speed until peaks are stiff
Fold in the shredded coconut (or cheese) gently mixing by hand
Shape the egg whites into egg nests on your lined baking sheet
Sprinkle with any seasonings you would like
Place the egg nests in the oven for 3 minutes, pull them out and then add a yolk into the center of each egg nest
Place back in the oven and bake for 3-5 more minutes or until the yolk is cooked to your liking
Serve and enjoy

Notes

Make sure your bowl is clean, any oil or residue in your bowl will stop your egg whites from forming like you need.

Helpful Hints 

Don't be concerned if some whites bake differently; no two nests will look alike!

Try different variations to make this dish the way you want. This is a great breakfast idea for Easter and can be used later in the day as an appetizer.

I prefer to bake these a little bit longer so that the nest hardens a bit more. The baking time is up to you.
