Ingredients

• 4 pieces large eggs
• 4 tablespoons heavy cream
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
• 1 tablespoon fresh herbs like parsley or chives (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Grease the inside of two 6-ounce ramekins or oven-safe bowls with butter to prevent the eggs from sticking.

Step 3

Crack 2 eggs into each ramekin, being careful not to break the yolks.

Step 4

Pour 2 tablespoons of heavy cream over the eggs in each ramekin.

Step 5

Sprinkle each ramekin with a pinch of salt, a pinch of black pepper, and 1 tablespoon of grated Parmesan cheese if using.

Step 6

Place the ramekins on a baking dish or sheet for easier handling.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolks remain runny. If you prefer fully cooked yolks, bake for an additional 2-3 minutes.

Step 8

Carefully remove the ramekins from the oven and let them cool for 1-2 minutes.

Step 9

Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or chives if desired and serve immediately with toast or a side of your choice.
