Breakfast Upside Down Cake

01Method

1. 1

   Warm the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the potatoes, red bell pepper, garlic, and onion, stirring occasionally until the potatoes are cooked through. Place a lid on the skillet to speed up the process.

2. 2

   Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Cut a piece of parchment paper to fit the bottom of an 8 or 9-inch round cake pan and press it in place.

3. 3

   Cook the bacon in a skillet or microwave until crispy, then drain and crumble it. Scatter the cheese across the bottom of the parchment-lined pan, then distribute the bacon crumbles over the cheese. Spread the potato mixture evenly on top. Beat the eggs and milk together with a fork, season with salt and pepper, and pour the mixture uniformly over the layers.

4. 4

   Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, until the egg is just set. Remove from the oven, run a knife around the edge to loosen, then invert onto a serving plate and peel away the parchment paper before serving.
