Bidle: for your bacon and egg cups, did you separate the eggs so you could mix the whites with your other ingredients, then drop the whole yolks into the cups before cooking?

That's interesting. Normally when I make those I just whisk it all together, essentially filling the bacon cup with omlette. I'm going to try it your way.

Also, if I think far enough ahead, I'll pre-cook the bacon in the muffin tin, then drain them off, clean the tin, and reset the bacon before filling and baking them. Makes for a crispier bacon cup, and the egg filling will keep it from getting too overdone.

Hi, yes that's the reason.

About your idea,... I sometimes do the same but a bit different. Just put the bacon on the other side of the cupcake holder for about 30min indirect on the bbq,.... or of-course oven. Afterwards you'll have a crisp nest. Now you don't need the cupholder anymore and can insert everything in the bacon-nest.
I do both depending on what I want to be the end-result. Sometimes the crisp nest and the other time just a bit more moist.

Here some photo's of what I mean:
