Herb Baked Eggs

By fsilver4

Oh I love this dish on a chilly Sunday morning.

Ingredients

• 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
• 1/2 teaspoon minced thyme
• 1/2 teaspoon minced rosemary
• 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 tablespoon minced parsley
• 12 extra large eggs
• 1/4 cup heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons butter
• salt and pepper
• Toast

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat broiler for 5 minutes and place the oven rack 6 inches below heat.

Combine garlic, thyme, rosemary, parsley and Parmesan cheese and set aside. Carefully crack 3 eggs into each of 4 small bowls or teacups that are okay for baking.

Place four individual gratin dishes on a baking sheet. Place 1 tablespoon of cream and 1/2 tablespoon butter in each dish and place under the broiler for about 3 minutes, until hot and bubbly. Quickly, but carefully pour 3 eggs each into each dish and sprinkle evenly with herb mixture, then sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper. Place back under the broiler for 5 to 6 minutes, until the whites of the eggs are almost cooked. The eggs will continue to cook after you take them out of the oven. Allow to set for 60 seconds and serve.
