Print Recipe
Halloween is a perfect excuse to get creative in the kitchen! By cracking the shells and soaking the eggs in blueberry-tinted water, you create a marbled effect that mimics cobwebs. Protein-packed eggs make them a perfect scary snack for your kids or party guests.
Ingredients
- 12 eggs
- 2 cups (500 mL) frozen blueberries
Instructions
- Step 1
Place eggs in single layer in bottom of large saucepan. Cover with cold water. Add frozen blueberries to pan. Bring to a rolling boil. Remove saucepan from heat and let eggs stand for 20 minutes.
- Step 2
Remove eggs from boiling liquid. Do not discard liquid. On tea towel, crack eggs all over keeping shells on. Place back in liquid; let stand for at least 1 hour or up to overnight, refrigerated.
- Step 3
Peel and serve immediately or refrigerate, covered, for up to 2 days.
Tips
Tip: Using older eggs makes them easier to peel.
