Simple Baked Eggs
Description
Simple Baked Eggs is a straightforward recipe involving cracking eggs into garlic-lined ramekins, then baking them at 325°F until set but still tender, typically 10 to 12 minutes. The inclusion of finely chopped garlic imparts a mild savory background, while salt and black pepper season the eggs evenly. After baking, the eggs can be garnished with fresh, thinly sliced red onions, basil leaves, and a sprinkle of Parmesan or cheddar cheese, adding freshness and a slight sharpness.
The eggs cook gently in the oven, resulting in softly set whites and creamy yolks that maintain moisture without overcooking. This single-serving dish is simple to assemble and cook, ideal for when you need a delicate egg preparation without fuss.
Serve these baked eggs straight from the ramekin, which helps retain their warmth and presentation. The toppings complement the smooth texture with a combination of freshness and richness from the herbs and cheese, making this dish suitable for a light breakfast or an elegant brunch component.
