I got the inspiration for this baked herbed eggs from Ina Garten’s show The Barefoot Contessa. I knew I just have to try this for myself. My family’s a big breakfast fan especially on Sundays so I thought this would be perfect.
This is best served individually, such as in ramekins. As I didn’t have them at home, I used a square glass pan to bake the eggs with. It was such a big hit at home that the next week my sister bought me ramekins.
Baked Herbed Eggs
Pour about 2 tbsp milk into ramekin pans. Bake at 300oF for 8-10 minutes. Remove ramekins from oven, pour an egg on each ramekin. Add chopped garlic and herbs of your choice (I used dried thyme and tarragon, fresh herbs would be good too). Sprinkle with salt to taste. Put back into the oven and bake till set (another 8-10 minutes). Serve with garlic bread. Or as we like to do, serve with fried rice.

Nice sister. I’ve never cooked eggs like this, but it does sound tasty!
What a good idea. So simple but very tasty
wow! This looks good. Can’t wait to try it!
These eggs sound great to me too! I looked for Ramekins in the dicctionary but didn’t say anything… is it a kind of plate? or what?
They’re really good. Ramekins are small glazed ceramic bowls usually used in molding creme brulee. I think you can use any small ceramic bowl as long as it can stand high heat.
What is the reason for baking the milk first?
