Creamy Parmesan Baked Eggs are a quick and delicious breakfast option featuring eggs baked in buttered ramekins with heavy cream and a generous sprinkle of Parmesan cheese, resulting in a rich, custardy texture with a cheesy, savory flavor.

Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 4 eggs
  • 4 tablespoons heavy cream
  • ¼ teaspoon salt (or to taste)
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper (or to taste)
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425℉ (220℃) to ensure it reaches the ideal temperature for baking the eggs evenly and creating a slightly golden top.
  2. Prep Ramekins: Butter two 4-inch ramekins thoroughly to prevent sticking and add richness to the baked eggs. Crack 2 eggs into each buttered ramekin carefully so the yolks remain intact.
  3. Add Cream and Seasonings: Pour 2 tablespoons of heavy cream into each ramekin over the eggs. Sprinkle salt and pepper evenly on top to season the eggs according to taste.
  4. Add Parmesan Cheese: Grate Parmesan cheese over the eggs in each ramekin, distributing it evenly to add a delicious cheesy crust once baked.
  5. Bake: Place the ramekins on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 10 to 12 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but yolks still slightly runny or cooked to your preference.

Notes

  • Use fresh eggs for the best texture and flavor.
  • Adjust baking time if you prefer firmer yolks.
  • You can substitute Parmesan with Pecorino Romano or Asiago if desired.
  • Serve immediately to enjoy the creamy texture at its best.
