Hahaha! Wow, well did you grease your pan first? Always a must in baking except when making an Angel Food. That's just about the only time you wouldn't grease a baking pan! But as for the doneness of it, yes this one is tricky because its hard to tell. The top looks done and the centers not always. 45 minutes sounds right, and I'm sure it was fabulous, but next time if you think it was a bit moist let it go another 10 minutes.

I like to look for the slight puff of the whole thing, hard to explain, but it sort of starts to souffle up a little bit, this tells me the eggs are definitely done! Thanks for watching Crumb Boss TV!
