Ingredients

• 1 whole baguette
• 4 large eggs
• 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or gruyere)
• 2 tablespoons heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 1 tablespoon butter

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Cut the baguette in half lengthwise and hollow out the center of each half, creating a boat shape. Leave about 1/2 inch of bread on the sides and bottom.

Step 3

Brush the inside of each baguette half with melted butter to add flavor and prevent sogginess.

Step 4

Place the baguette halves on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 5

In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Step 6

Divide the shredded cheese evenly between the baguette halves, spreading it in the hollowed-out sections.

Step 7

Pour the egg mixture into each baguette half, filling almost to the top. Be careful not to overfill.

Step 8

Sprinkle chopped parsley over the egg mixture for a pop of color and flavor.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the egg filling is set and slightly golden on top.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and let cool for 1-2 minutes. Slice into portions and serve warm.
