Seriously, is there anything your slow cooker can't do?! Baking eggs in your slow cooker is a huge help when you have family staying over for the holidays or are hosting a brunch and need extra space.
We love how amazingly adaptable this recipe is. If you don't want bacon, you can sub in cooked Italian sausage or chopped ham or prosciutto—or keep it vegetarian.
We love the trick of adding frozen hash browns straight to the slow cooker—no need for defrosting! They add nice bulk to the fluffy baked eggs.
