Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Pour the melted butter into an individual souffle dish or custard dish. Break the egg into the dish. Top with half-and-half. Sprinkle with the cheese, the spices, and the Parmesan. Place the dish in a larger pan and carefully add hot water to the larger pan until it is about 1" full. Bake for 20 minutes.

To serve, run a knife around the edge of the dish, drain off any excess liquid, and slide the egg out of the dish onto a toasted English muffin half or buttered toast. Option: layer the muffin with Canadian bacon, ham, or regular bacon and a slice of tomato before adding the egg.
