What You’ll Need
- 2 eggs (preferably large)
- A knife or kitchen scissors
- A straw (for cutting small details like eyes)
- A spoon (to shape the ears)
- Salt & pepper (to taste)
- Optional: Vegetables, cheese, or herbs for decoration
Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1: Boil the Eggs
- Place your eggs in a pot and cover them with water.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and let them simmer for about 10 minutes.
- Once done, transfer them to an ice bath to cool for easier peeling.
Step 2: Shape the Bunny Face
- Peel the eggs carefully to keep them smooth.
- Cut a small portion off the bottom so the egg can stand upright.
- Using a sharp knife, slice the egg white on top to create “ears” but keep them attached.
- Gently pull the ears upward to give the bunny its shape.
Step 3: Add Facial Features
- Use a straw or small knife to create eyes and a nose by cutting tiny holes.
- Fill the holes with black sesame seeds, small pieces of olive, or tiny dots of ketchup/mustard.
- Use thinly sliced carrots or radish for the whiskers.
Step 4: Serve & Enjoy!
- Place the bunny-shaped eggs on a plate with whole-grain toast, avocado slices, or fresh greens.
- Sprinkle some salt and pepper for extra flavor.
- Serve with a side of fruit and a fun Easter-themed drink for a complete breakfast experience!
Tips for the Perfect Bunny-Shaped Eggs
- Use fresh eggs for better shaping and easier peeling.
- Experiment with decorations like cheese strips for ears or cherry tomatoes for a cute nose.
- Make it a family activity! Let your kids decorate their own bunny eggs.
Now you have the perfect bunny-shaped eggs for a delightful breakfast! Whether it’s Easter morning or just a fun weekend surprise, this adorable meal will bring smiles to the table. 🐰✨
