Gyeran Bbang - Korean Egg Bread
Korean egg bread (gyeran bbang) baked in standard muffin pan is filled with hard boiled egg in each bread, making it perfect for breakfast.
Here is an easy breakfast idea from Korea, gyeran bbang - Korean egg bread. Make in standard muffin cups, the recipe yields 6, but easily doubled to yield 12 for a full size standard muffin pan.
Smaller sized eggs are better
In most of my baked goods recipes, I assume most people will default to large eggs. But for this recipe, smaller size eggs, like US small, or US medium, will work better. If you don’t mind with overflowing, you can push it with US large eggs, but definitely not US extra large. Trust me, it will be a messy affair cleaning up your oven afterwards.
One bowl and one whisk
This is a very easy recipe. To mix the recipe, you only need to put all batter ingredients in a bowl, and hand whisk until smooth. Next, just divide batter to fill 6 standard size muffin cups, and top each with an egg, and sprinkle with salt, pepper, and parsley. After 25 minutes of baking, you will be greeted with a wonderful egg bread for breakfast.

Looks great. Can Egg Bread freeze for another days? I have problemed with freezed baked eggs becoming very blanded and soaked up freezed water. Any solutions?
LT, I don't freeze, but just store leftovers in an air-tight container inside my fridge (not freezer). They are good for up to 5 days in the fridge. I simply reheat the one I want to eat in microwave for 20-30 seconds, and the bread become warm and fluffy again, and the egg is looking none the worse. :)
I'll be making these soon! They look great and I'm glad I won't have to buy a special pan. When the eggs are cracked and placed on top, do they sink to the middle as they bake? Thank you in advance for your help! :)
The eggs will usually sink to the middle on their own during baking. Also, be sure to choose smaller size eggs so the batter don't overflow.
My kids will love to have this for breakfast! I love that it's such an easy recipe. So fun!
This is such a great idea for breakfast or Easter brunch!
Indeed, these egg bread muffins can be something quite unusual but still very interesting and delicious to serve for Eastern brunch.
Ooh! This looks so easy and fun! Do you serve it with anything else or just these on their own? Any "toppings"?
Luci, I usually just serve these as is. :)
I love love love this idea for a grab n go breakfast!!! I can't wait to make these!
My egg is not sinking. Would you know why? 😅
Hi Andrea, I don't think the eggs are supposed to sink all the way down. Mine always still sort of float near the surface, though most of the time they won't appear on the surface itself. :)
These were so fabulous! I had tried Korean Egg Bread from a Korean bakery once upon a time, and thought I'd never see them again. But then I stumbled on your recipe - and it's fabulous! Just like I remember!
These sound delicious. I can't wait to make them.
These Korean egg breads are so delicious and a perfect recipe to make during Spring!
These were delicious. We made these yesterday and they were so tasty and I'm glad we had plenty for seconds. This recipe is definitely a keeper.
Wow! These look and sound so good! I love how they look when you cut into one! I have to see if I can master these!
