Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Carefully separate the egg whites from the yolks, placing the whites into a large mixing bowl.
  3. Beat the egg whites on high speed until stiff peaks form, about 2 minutes.
  4. Gently fold in the crumbled bacon, grated parmesan cheese, and sliced green onions or chives.
  5. Dollop mounds of the mixture onto the baking sheet, creating wells in the center.
  6. Bake the shaped egg clouds for 3 minutes until just starting to turn lightly golden.
  7. Carefully place an egg yolk into the well of each egg cloud.
  8. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 3-5 minutes until the yolks are slightly runny.
  9. Remove from the oven, season with salt and black pepper to taste, and serve immediately.
