Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces large eggs
- 4 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (optional)
- 2 tablespoons shredded cheese (optional, like Gruyère or cheddar)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly butter 2 ramekins using the tablespoon of butter, ensuring the inner sides and bottom are evenly coated.
Crack two eggs into each ramekin, keeping the yolks intact.
Drizzle 2 tablespoons of heavy cream over the eggs in each ramekin.
Season each ramekin with salt and black pepper to taste.
If using shredded cheese, evenly sprinkle 1 tablespoon over the eggs in each ramekin.
Place the ramekins in a baking dish and fill the dish with hot water until it reaches about halfway up the sides of the ramekins to create a water bath.
Carefully transfer the baking dish to the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolks remain runny (adjust bake time for firmer or softer yolks as preferred).
Remove the ramekins from the water bath using tongs or oven mitts and let them cool for 1-2 minutes.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired, and serve immediately with toasted bread or a side of your choice.
