Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Generously grease two ceramic ramekins with butter or cooking spray. (5 minutes)

02

Step
3 mins

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and heavy cream until well combined and slightly frothy. (2 minutes)

03

Step
5 mins

Divide the sliced bacon evenly between the prepared ramekins, arranging them on the bottom. Pour half of the egg mixture into each ramekin. Season with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. (3 minutes)

04

Step
25 mins

Carefully place the ramekins in the preheated oven and bake until the eggs are set, domed on top, and golden brown, approximately 20-25 minutes. (25 minutes)

05

Step
5 mins

While the eggs are baking, toast the bread slices to your desired level of doneness. Slice each toast slice into thin strips (soldiers) and spread generously with softened butter. (5 minutes)

06

Step
2 mins

Once the baked eggs are ready, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Serve immediately with the buttered toast soldiers for dipping.

For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese or chopped fresh herbs (such as chives or parsley) to the egg mixture before baking.
If you prefer a runnier yolk, reduce the baking time by a few minutes. Keep a close eye on the eggs to prevent overcooking.
Feel free to customize this recipe with your favorite ingredients! Diced ham, sautéed mushrooms, or crumbled cheese would all be delicious additions.
