Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 4 tablespoons heavy cream
- 2 teaspoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 tablespoon chives, chopped
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
- 1 teaspoon thyme leaves
- 4 slices country-style bread, toasted
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly butter two small oven-safe ramekins using 1 teaspoon of butter per ramekin.
Add 2 tablespoons of heavy cream to each ramekin, swirling slightly to coat the bottom.
Crack 2 eggs into each ramekin, being careful not to break the yolks.
Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of grated Parmesan cheese over the eggs in each ramekin.
Season both ramekins with a pinch of salt, freshly ground black pepper, thyme leaves, and half of the chopped chives. Reserve the remaining chives for garnish.
Place the ramekins on a baking sheet for stability and bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still slightly runny.
Remove the ramekins from the oven and let them sit for 2 minutes to finish setting.
Garnish with the reserved chopped chives.
Serve the baked eggs with slices of toasted country-style bread for dipping.
