I am obsessed with these eggs. Perfectly soft cooked eggs topped with crunchy topping bursting with flavor from the Parmesan cheese, garlic and herbs like parsley, rosemary and thyme.
This recipe is super easy to throw together for weekend breakfast or fancy enough to impress guests. A must, serve with thick slice of bread to spread those soft cooked eggs all over.
I tweaked the recipe a little but I can’t take all the credit for this recipe. One of my all time favorite chefs Ina Garten gets all the credit here. I love her french style cooking that she simplifies and makes realistic for the home cook. So it’s no wonder this recipe is absolutely amazing.
HERBED BAKED EGGS:
Turn oven to broil, set your oven racks about 6 inches below the heat
Prepare the topping in a small bowl. Combine garlic, thyme, rosemary, parsley and Parmesan cheese, and set side.
In oven proof ramekins, melt butter and half and half in oven. Meanwhile, crack 2 eggs in a small bowl – this ensures you don’t break the yolk and the eggs are ready to go into the hot ramekins.
Once bubbly remove ramekins from oven and carefully add 2 eggs in each ramekin. Sprinkle Parmesan-herb topping evenly over eggs. Place eggs back in oven under broiler for about 6 minutes or until eggs cooked to your liking. Remove eggs from oven, the eggs will continue to cook and set some as you let it cool for about 60 seconds. Serve with toasted bread.
