Hard "Baked" Eggs

Ditch the pot of boiling water and try baking your eggs.

 We baked 2 dozen eggs for Easter Egg Dying and I will say, I didn't miss the pot, the boiling water, the straining.....

Place eggs in mini-muffin tin.  Bake, without pre-heating, at 325 deg. for 30 min. Let cool for a few minutes, place in large bowl, then add cold water and ice.

How easy is that?

The eggs come out just liked boiled eggs--same texture, peel the same.  

As the eggs bake, moisture from inside seaps out on to the shell.  I dabbed the eggs a few times during baking to limit the number of dropplets.  These wet spots turn brown as the egg cooks, but dissolve off the shells while they sit in the bowl of water.
