This small, single-serving griddle is perfect for a college student or anyone with minimal kitchen space and a big love of breakfast. This double-sided griddle features not one but two non-stick surfaces that are only 4 inches in diameter. The fact that you get heat from both the top and bottom at the same time means it cooks up eggs in a flash. According to one enthusiastic review, it makes the perfect over easy egg in just 25 seconds! 

Of course, this little griddle can also cook up single-serving pancakes, quesadillas, breakfast sandwiches, and even cookies. It's basically a full-service deli in one tiny little contraption.

If you're a fan of the Starbucks sous vide egg bites, but not a fan of waiting in a long line in the morning, then this is the product for you. The DASH Deluxe Sous Vide Style Egg Bite Maker technically doesn't make sous vide eggs, but they're close enough — and all in the comfort of your own home. The DASH Deluxe Sous Vide Style Egg Bite Maker is essentially just a double-sided griddle with silicone ring inserts that closely imitate a sous vide egg without all the expensive vacuum-sealing equipment.

Simply whisk up some eggs, pour them in the egg bite molds, add whatever toppings you want, like mushrooms, cheese, or sliced red pepper, and 10 to 12 minutes later you've got yourself some egg bites! And you didn't even have to put on pants. If you're a fan of a classic breakfast sandwich, this DASH griddle also comes with a larger silicone ring to make the perfect fluffy eggs that'll fit right onto an English muffin or Kaiser roll.

Okay, so a gadget that just separates the egg yolks from the egg whites might feel like overkill, but hear us out. Sure, you could just gently pour the egg yolk between the cracked shells to separate, but that can easily lead to a broken yolk. And okay, yeah, you can separate eggs using your hands, but come on, that's messy, and hello? Ever heard of salmonella? The beauty of the Peleg YolkFish egg separator is that it eliminates the need to touch raw eggs, it's mess-free, and most importantly, it's a fun, cute little tool that will make you smile while you prepare your egg white omelet. 

Simply crack a whole egg into a bowl, pinch the YolkFish to create suction, and use the YolkFish's big fishy lips to gently pick up the yolk without breaking it. This makes for the perfect gift, and it's also great for people who cook with their kids. It even comes in a green frog and pink pig variety! 

The DASH Deluxe Rapid Egg Cooker looks like a contraption that George Jetson might have used. But really, this ingenious and small appliance allows you to quickly and easily cook up to a dozen eggs at the same time! The DASH Deluxe Rapid Egg Cooker boasts the ability to make hard-boiled, soft-boiled, poached, and scrambled eggs, and even has an insert so you can make your own omelet. Simply place the eggs inside, or crack eggs into the provided poaching molds, add water with the included measuring cup, put on the lid, and wait for the chime to tell you your eggs are ready!

This DASH Deluxe Rapid Egg Cooker is great for anyone who really loves eggs, but it's an entertainer's dream, especially if you love to serve deviled eggs. Several enthusiastic reviews claim that this compact, $30 tool is a dream for preparing deviled eggs for a crowd (or for yourself!)

Making a perfect poached egg is notoriously difficult. You have to crack your eggs right into boiling water, vinegar is involved, and you have to scoop them out just at the right time but without breaking the delicate, soft yolk. Or you could buy the Prep Solutions Microwave Poach Perfect and have anywhere from one to four poached eggs (depending on the size you purchase) in a matter of seconds. Kinda seems like a no brainer!

The directions seem simple enough: Add water to the poacher, add your eggs, close the lid, pop it in the microwave, and you're done! According to at least one review, you may have to experiment a little bit to get the water ratio just right to avoid overly runny eggs. But once you get the hang of this microwavable poacher, it seems like a poached egg lover's best friend.

If the thought of cooking your eggs in the microwave makes you feel a bit squeamish, then perhaps the Eggssentials Egg Poacher Insert is the tool you're looking for. This is essentially a tiny, stainless steel, non-stick cup holder that you can place inside a pot or pan of boiling water, and it will perfectly poach your eggs without all the mess and hassle. Another perk? It also works inside a pressure cooker! And another perk? You can also use this insert to make egg bites! Just scramble your eggs, add some veggies and toppings, and cook them as usual.

This Eggssentials Egg Poacher Insert seems a lot more straightforward than microwaving eggs in silicone, and with thousands of enthusiastic reviews, including one from an actual chef who claims to use it every morning, it's easy to see how this small but mighty egg poacher could find its way into your morning routine. 

The Negg Boiled Egg Peeler is one of those products that solves a problem you didn't even realize you had. But based on the reviews, it seems like once you try this egg peeler, you might not be able to live without it. The Negg might look like a tumbler with a lid on it, but what it does is basically peel your hard-boiled egg for you. If you've ever spent more time than you really wanted to peeling a stubborn egg whose shell just won't come off, then you know the particular heartache that this little cup can help you avoid.

How does the Negg Egg Peeler work? It's science, but it seems like magic. You simply add a little water to the cup, add your hard-boiled egg, and shake until the shell cracks. Then the shell all but pops off the egg. One reviewer points out this works better when the egg has cooled down a bit. Also, it might not work as well for soft-boiled eggs, as shaking them around can also break the yolk. 

Making a hard-boiled egg seems like it should be as easy as boiling water and adding an egg, but of course it's a bit more complicated than that. The timing is actually pretty precise depending if you want your egg boiled soft, medium, or fully hard. It can be tough to get the timing exactly right for an egg that's not too runny but not so dry that you've got that gross, crumbling yolk in the middle. 

Luckily, for about $8 you can get yourself a Norpro Perfect Egg Timer. This simple and ingenious little egg-shaped gadget sits right in the pot alongside the eggs you're boiling. As the water heats up, the timer changes color, indicating when you've achieved soft-, medium-, or hard-boiled perfection. It completely takes the finicky guesswork out of egg boiling! And with thousands of glowing reviews, it seems this small but mighty timer really does the trick.

The rings are easy to clean, easy to store, and can also be used to make any round breakfast food you can imagine — and it turns out a lot of breakfast foods are round. If you want to get real fancy, you can even use the FUNUTTER rings to make your own English muffins. Or why not make an egg sandwich with pancakes for the bread? Go nuts!

These little OXO Good Grips Silicone Egg Poachers seem a tad confusing at first glance. How exactly do they help you poach an egg? But upon further inspection, they're about as easy as easy can get, and they help take the mess and complication out of poaching your eggs in boiling water. You simply place these little guys in a pot of boiling water, perforated side down. Then you crack an egg into the hole on top, which gently guides the egg into the basket and keeps the it contained in its water bath as it poaches. The perforations allow for maximum water flow so that the eggs cook evenly. And that's it!

These are cheap, the silicone is safe to cook with, and according to reviews, it works well. One reviewer points out that because each of these poachers is 3½ inches wide, you need a bigger pot to cook two at the same time.
