I love breakfast recipes that can easily feed multiple people that are easy to make. This recipe is one of those. Simple and delicious, paired with some bread makes a great and yummy simple breakfast. We coated the pan with cheese and then added the eggs which makes a really delicious cheesy crust on the bottom of these baked eggs. Perfect for two people, or use a bigger pan and make more! :)

very very good thanks I love it
Any suggestions for an alternative to feta?
You can sub in goat cheese or even shredded Gruyère or grated Parmesan!
Love this recipe! But I can never seem to get the whites cooked and the yolk runny. They’re either both runny or both cooked. Any tips?
Hi Katy! If that’s been an issue for you, I recommend separating the yolks from the whites and adding the yolks to the baked eggs about halfway through the cooking time. The whites should set nicely, while the yolks will still be runny.
Make this tonight. It was delish!
Can’t wait to try!!!
Can’t wait to try your recipes.. I’m always looking for something new.
Good meal…. very good
I also love egg dishes. So this is a new dish and I am going to try this. Thanks a lot.
yum, a nice chnage for me from my regular fried egg prep, thank you!
What are the eggs sitting on top of? It looks like porridge of some kind.
There’s nothing under the eggs, those are just the cooked whites with some melted cheese sprinkled on top!
This looks and sounds fantastic! Thanks for sharing as I’m always looking for new ways with eggs. And I love the pan. Is it a small paella pan?
thank you, eggs are the protein part of my daily diet and am kinda sick of my regular fried egg dish, so really appreciate this recipe!
Oh yum. I am certainly going to have to try this….but I think I’ll make it for dinner! I am a sucker for eggs for dinner :)
