How do you use the egg cooker?

You can make many recipes in the egg cooker – specifically note that if you have any recipe that calls for making it in a mug, the Ceramic Egg Cooker is a much better option. It’s deeper, and it has a silicone grip on the outside so it’s not too hot to grab after being in the microwave.

• Muffin
• Omelet
• Oatmeal
• Egg for egg sandwich
• Mini cakes
• Peach cobbler
• French toast
• Lasagna

• Also great for college dorm room cooking!

You simply pick the recipe, and pull out the ingredients and cook right in the microwave. See my cleaning tips below.

Cleaning Instructions

Here are a few tips for cleaning the egg cooker:

• It’s dishwasher safe, so the first step right after you are finished using it and removing the food, is to put cold water inside of it. Let that sit while you eat your recipe and then pour it out and put right into the dishwasher.
• The silicone sleeve and even the silicone gasket in the lid can actually be removed and cleaned. But always replace it before cooking.
• If you use a metal fork or spoon, you may notice marring. This does not affect the performance and can be cleaned by simply using a cleanser like Bar Keepers Friend.
• It’s best to butter or oil the bottom of the egg cooker before cooking, rather than using an aerosol spray which leaves a sticky residue and makes it difficult to clean.

Reviews of the Egg Cooker

The egg cooker from Pampered Chef is a great tool specifically for:

• Cooking for one
• Teens
• Dorm room cooking
• Quick meals for yourself when no one else is home
• Those with limited cooking skills

It’s very easy to use in the microwave (it’s also oven safe to 450) which makes it a great tool for healthier eating as well. Rather than going through the drive-through for breakfast, the Ceramic Egg Cooker can save you time and money as well. I enjoy using it for quick and easy breakfasts, and have taught both of my children how to use it as well. My son even asked for it to go to college with him!
