Ozzy Osbourne’s Final Show, Celebrated with These Breakfast Treats

Ozzy Osbourne took his final bow onstage at Black Sabbath’s “Back to the Beginning” show in England. It reunited all four original members – guitarist Tony Iommi, drummer Bill Ward, bassist Geezer Butler, and Ozzy Osbourne – for the first time in 20 years. The all-day event went down in their hometown, Birmingham, England, and raised almost $200 million for charity.

Over 5 million of us metalheads around the world tuned into the livestream so we didn’t have to miss out. But it started at 10:00 a.m. ET… or 7:00 a.m. for people on the West Coast, like me. (7:00 a.m. on a SATURDAY?!)

Since I had to be up so early, I decided to make it fun – and delicious – with a few breakfast dish ideas to celebrate.

If you missed your chance to make them for Ozzy, they’ll also work well for a little-known holiday in October called Halloween – or if dark and spooky is your M.O., anytime!

Bat-Shaped Egg Bites

Ingredients:

• 8 slices bacon (about 8 ounces), cut into 1/2″ pieces
• 1 tablespoon avocado oil
• 18 large eggs
• 1/2 cup half-and-half
• 3 scallions, thinly sliced
• 2 Roma tomatoes, seeded and diced
• 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar
• 2 teaspoons of Kosher salt
• 1/4 teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper
• 18″ x 13″ sheet pan
• Bat-shaped cookie cutter

Directions:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. After cutting the bacon, spread it onto the sheet in a single layer. Drizzle with oil. Bake about 15 minutes until it is crisp and lightly browned. Remove from oven, but do not drain fat. Reduce oven temperature to 300 degrees.
• Whisk the eggs, half-and-half, salt, pepper, and scallions. Pour mixture over the bacon, and top with tomatoes and cheese. Carefully return the pan into the oven, and bake until the eggs are set (about 25 minutes.)
• Let the eggs cool for about 5 minutes. Using the cookie cutter, stamp out your bats. Enjoy!

Note: In the TikTok video, I cut the recipe in half.

Apple Cinnamon Roll Bake

Ingredients:

• 2 Pink Lady apples (Ozzy’s fav!) – Peeled, cored, and diced
• 1 tablespoon of light brown sugar + 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon
• 1 can of Pillsbury Grands cinnamon rolls
• 5 tablespoons of unsalted butter – melted
• 1/3 cup of packed light brown sugar
• 9″ baking pan

Directions:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees and spray baking pan with nonstick cooking spray. (I used avocado oil.)
• Cut each cinnamon roll into 6 pieces. Sprinkle the pieces evenly in your greased baking pan.
• Sauté apples in a skillet, and add the brown sugar and cinnamon mixture. Add water as necessary. Once the apples are done, drain if necessary, then add them to your baking pan.
• In a microwave safe bowl, melt butter. Mix in the 1/3 cup of brown sugar. Pour over the cinnamon roll pieces and apples.
• Bake for 28 – 33 minutes, or until the center is cooked through. Once it’s done, let cool for 10 minutes.
• Before serving, don’t forget to pour the icing! If you prefer a thinner glaze, you can mix a tablespoon of milk or heavy whipping cream. Voila!
