Baked eggs with cheese

Here’s a tasty recipe for baked eggs with cheese:

Ingredients:

• 4 large eggs
• 1/4 cup grated cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your favorite)
• 2 tablespoons heavy cream or milk
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1 tablespoon butter (for greasing)
• Optional toppings: fresh herbs (parsley, chives), diced tomatoes, spinach, or mushrooms

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

2. Grease the dish: Butter or lightly grease 2 small ramekins or oven-safe bowls.

3. Add cream and cheese: Pour 1 tablespoon of heavy cream or milk into each ramekin. Sprinkle a little cheese in the bottom of each dish (save some cheese for topping later).

4. Crack the eggs: Carefully crack 2 eggs into each ramekin. Try not to break the yolks.

5. Season: Sprinkle with salt and pepper, and add any additional toppings (like fresh herbs, spinach, or mushrooms).

6. Add cheese topping: Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top of the eggs.

7. Bake the eggs: Place the ramekins on a baking tray and bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes. The eggs should be just set with slightly runny yolks, but you can adjust the baking time based on how firm you like your eggs.

8. Serve: Remove from the oven, let them cool for a minute or two, and enjoy!

This dish is delicious with some toasted bread on the side or even served with a simple salad.
