Ingredients

Dairy

  • 1
    2 unit large eggs
  • 2
    2 tablespoon tablespoons cream cheese
  • 3
    1 tablespoon tablespoon milk

Seasoning

  • 1
    0.125 teaspoon teaspoon salt
  • 2
    0.0625 teaspoon teaspoon black pepper

Optional

  • 1
    0.5 tablespoon tablespoon chopped chives

Directions

1

Preheat Oven

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). This ensures the eggs cook evenly.

2

Prepare Ramekins

Lightly grease two ramekins or small oven-safe dishes with butter or cooking spray. This will prevent the eggs from sticking.

3

Mix Cream Cheese

In a small bowl, mix the cream cheese and milk until it is smooth and creamy. If the cream cheese is cold, microwaving it for 10-15 seconds can make it easier to mix. The mixture should be easy to pour.

Add Cream Cheese to Ramekins

Place 1 tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture into the bottom of each ramekin, ensuring it is evenly distributed.

5

Crack Eggs

Gently crack one egg into each ramekin on top of the cream cheese layer. Be careful not to break the yolk.

6

Season Eggs

Sprinkle the eggs with salt and pepper. This adds flavor. You can add more or less according to your taste.

7

Bake Eggs

Carefully place the ramekins in the preheated oven. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the yolks are cooked to your desired consistency. For a runny yolk, aim for the lower end of the time; for a firmer yolk, bake longer. Watch closely to avoid overcooking.

8

Cool Slightly

Remove the ramekins from the oven using oven mitts and let them cool for a minute or two before serving. Be careful as the ramekins will be hot.

9

Garnish and Serve

Garnish with fresh chives if desired. This adds a fresh flavor and visual appeal. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Recipe Tips

  • For a smoother cream cheese mixture, use room-temperature cream cheese.
  • Adjust baking time based on your preference for egg yolk consistency.
  • If you don't have ramekins, use any small oven-safe dish.
  • Add other herbs or spices like paprika or garlic powder for additional flavor.
  • Store leftover cooked eggs in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently.
