Ingredients

• 4 large eggs
• 4 tablespoons heavy cream
• 2 teaspoons unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, grated
• 1 tablespoon chives, chopped
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
• 1 teaspoon thyme leaves
• 4 slices country-style bread, toasted

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Lightly butter two small oven-safe ramekins using 1 teaspoon of butter per ramekin.

Step 3

Add 2 tablespoons of heavy cream to each ramekin, swirling slightly to coat the bottom.

Step 4

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

Step 5

Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of grated Parmesan cheese over the eggs in each ramekin.

Step 6

Season both ramekins with a pinch of salt, freshly ground black pepper, thyme leaves, and half of the chopped chives. Reserve the remaining chives for garnish.

Step 7

Place the ramekins on a baking sheet for stability and bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still slightly runny.

Step 8

Remove the ramekins from the oven and let them sit for 2 minutes to finish setting.

Step 9

Garnish with the reserved chopped chives.

Step 10

Serve the baked eggs with slices of toasted country-style bread for dipping.
