Student Recipes 🍳 Not Going Egging This Year? Here's What To Do With Your Eggs Instead 💡




Covid Cancelled Halloween 😭


If you're one of the people who tend to end up in Pembroke on Halloween (we know what you're really doing 😏 🥚) you may be wondering what to do with your stockpile of eggs...


So, we're here to hook you up with some eggcellent recipes & fun activities involving your favourite aerodynamic object, EGGS 😂



#1 - Mug Cake 🍰



Don't be a mug and waste your eggs, especially when you can make MUG CAKE! It is one of the most delicious and simple snacks and is so customizable. There's also no mess.



What you need 👇

  • 4 tbsp self-raising flour

  • 4 tbsp caster sugar

  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder

  • 1 medium egg

  • 3 tbsp milk

  • 3 tbsp vegetable oil or sunflower oil

  • A few drops of vanilla essence or another essence (orange or peppermint work well)

  • 2 tbsp chocolate chips

How to make it 👨‍🍳

  1. Mix all the above together into a bowl and pour into a mug

  2. Microwave for 1.30 minutes - 2.00 minutes

  3. The easiest recipe for a quick chocolate fix 😍




#2 - Avocado & Poached Eggs On Toast 🥑



A simple, timeless classic - everyone loves avocado toast. Now, just add a poached egg, what's not to love? They'd look great on your insta story too 👀



What you need 👇

  • Avocado

  • Toast

  • 1x Egg

  • Seasoning & Vinegar


How to make it 👨‍🍳

  1. Crack your egg into a bowl or onto a saucer

  2. Add a drop of vinegar (either to the water in the pan or the egg)

  3. Bring a pan of water filled at least 5cm deep to a simmer (NO salt yet)

  4. Stir the water to create a gentle whirlpool

  5. Slowly tip the egg into the centre

  6. Cook for 3-4 minutes or until the white is set

  7. Lift the egg out and plate

  8. Tada! All done - you are now a pro chef! 😅



#3 - Eggy Experiment 😂


Not a recipe, but Tik Tok has recently been circulating a trend of putting an egg into a glass of coke. Apparently the egg goes completely transparent and looks like a bouncy ball.


Unfortunately, it doesn't bounce like a bouncy ball 😥 - though it is pretty satisfying when it pops I'm not yolking 🍳



#4 - Flying Eggs 😲



Chucking an egg off a rooftop? Sounds like fun to us, sort of stress-relieving actually 😎


Another way to use up those eggs is by making a game out of it with your friends or family, wrap the eggs up in different materials, and try to make a protective parachute or suit.


Whoever's egg comes out uncracked wins 🏆 (BONUS: loser cleans up AND cooks an egg lunch for the rest of the players 😅)





#5 - French Toast 🍞



Yum! Maple syrup dripping off of buttery french toast, crispy on top but soooofffft and cinnamony on the inside 😏 Convinced yet? If not, you might be a little insane 🙃



What you need 👇

  • 2x eggs

  • 1/4 cup of milk

  • 1x tablespoon of sugar

  • 4 slices of bread


How to make it 👨‍🍳

  1. Whisk the eggs in a bowl

  2. Add all other ingredients

  3. Dip the bread into mixture (coating both sides generously)

  4. Cook bread pieces in a pan until golden brown

  5. BONUS: Add blueberries & banana slices for extra flavor 😍
