Baked Eggs
Serves 1
This oven baked eggs recipe is such a quick and easy way to cook eggs! The recipe here serves 1, though you can easily scale it up to feed more. I cook 2 eggs per 4.5-inch ramekin. If you don't have ramekins, 3 to 4 eggs will bake nicely in a 6-inch oven-safe skillet. You can also use a muffin pan, baking 1 egg in each of the muffin cups.
Ingredients
- ½ teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil, per small ramekin
- 2 eggs, per small ramekin
- Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
Topping options
- Crumbled feta cheese
- Chopped chives
- Fresh dill
- Sautéed asparagus
- Frozen peas, thawed
- Microgreens
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F and grease a 4.5-inch ramekin with the olive oil. Place it on a baking sheet (the baking sheet makes it easier to move the ramekin in and out of the oven).
- Crack 2 eggs into the ramekin and bake for 10 to 15 minutes (we do about 12), or until the egg whites are just set and the yolk is still runny. If using a muffin tin, bake 9 to 12 minutes. Be careful not to overcook, the baked eggs should look a little underdone as you take them out. They’ll set a bit more as they cool out of the oven.
- Top the baked eggs with feta, chives, dill, asparagus, peas, and/or microgreens, if desired, or see the blog post above for additional topping ideas.
