017 // Sunday Breakfast

baked eggs

Happy Day Lights Savings!

I am extremely happy (despite loosing an hour during the weekend) that we now have longer days. For one, I can come home after work and still have some day light to go running or take Lulu out. Anyways, this morning I decided to make baked eggs for the family. Normally I stay away from tomatoes, but it really adds a nice flavor to these breakfast cups. With a little toast on the side and some fresh juice, these little cups are the perfect portion for a filling breakfast.

Baked Eggs

4-8 eggs (depends on how many eggs you want in each cup, I used one per ramekin)
mozzarella cheese (I used sun dried tomato and basil marinated)
grape tomatoes
fresh basil
butter
heavy cream
salt and pepper

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
Butter the ramekins and then add tomatoes, cheese, basil and eggs.
Sprinkle salt and pepper and add 1/2 teaspoon of heavy cream to each ramekin to prevent dryness.
Bake for 6-10 minutes until eggs are cooked.

    Baked eggs are so good! I love doing this, too! Sometimes the hubs and I bake up a mixture in a large ramekin and dig at it. Usually, we finish it off-- piece of cake! Or eggs. :)
