A simple and elegant baked egg dish featuring creamy goat cheese, fresh herbs, and a deliciously rich blend of butter and cream, perfect for a wholesome breakfast or a satisfying brunch.

Ingredients

Scale

Dairy & Eggs

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 4 tablespoons heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup fresh goat cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 2 large eggs

Herbs

  • 4 tablespoons fresh thyme, rosemary, and parsley finely chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Turn on the oven to the broiler setting on high to prepare for baking the eggs.
  2. Melt Butter and Cream: Transfer the heavy cream and butter to a ramekin and place it in the oven for 2 minutes until the butter has melted and blended with the cream.
  3. Add Cheeses: Drizzle half of the goat cheese and half of the parmesan cheese over the butter-cream mixture in the ramekin.
  4. Place Eggs: Carefully break the eggs on top of the cheese mixture, keeping the yolks intact for a creamy texture.
  5. Add Herbs and Remaining Cheese: Sprinkle half of the chopped herbs over the eggs, then drizzle the remaining goat and parmesan cheeses on top.
  6. Bake Eggs: Place the ramekin back in the oven and bake for about 8 minutes, or until the egg yolks are cooked to your liking.
  7. Finish and Serve: Remove the ramekin carefully as it will be hot, sprinkle the remaining herbs on top, and let cool slightly before serving. It’s best served on a wooden board or plate to handle the heat.

Notes

  • Use fresh herbs for the best flavor; thyme, rosemary, and parsley complement the cheeses perfectly.
  • Adjust cooking time slightly depending on how runny or firm you prefer your egg yolks.
  • Be careful when removing the hot ramekin from the oven to avoid burns.
  • This recipe serves one but can be easily doubled for more servings.
  • Serving on a wooden board or heatproof plate protects your table and makes handling easier.
