CHEESY BAKED EGGS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prepare a 9x13 inch baking dish with the melted butter.
• Whisk together the eggs, pepperjack cheese, cottage cheese, flour, and salt in a large bowl. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until eggs are completely set, about 1 hour.

BAKED FRENCH EGGS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425°F. Spritz each muffin cup with butter flavored cooking spray. Crack an egg into each cup.
• Drizzle each egg with 1-2 tsp of heavy cream. A drizzle of melted butter will work, too. Season with salt and freshly ground pepper to taste and sprinkle with 1 Tbsp of Parmesan cheese.
• Place the eggs into the oven and cook 7-8 minutes for soft, 9-10 minutes for semi-soft and 11-12 minutes for firm centers. Garnish with additional Parmesan cheese and serve immediately.

OEUFS COCOTTE (BAKED EGGS)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Boil water in a kettle.
• Grease a small lidded casserole dish with olive oil. Distribute diced ham over the bottom and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon Gruyere cheese. Pour cream on top and season with a little pepper.
• Crack eggs into the casserole dish one at a time, making sure egg yolks remain intact. Sprinkle with remaining 1 tablespoon Gruyere cheese and fresh chives. Season with salt and pepper. Cover casserole dish and place into a roasting pan. Pour in enough boiling water so it reaches about halfway up the casserole dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 9 minutes with the lid on. Uncover and continue baking until the egg whites are just set but the yolks are still runny, 3 to 6 additional minutes.

EASY CHEESY BAKED EGGS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease an 8x8-inch pan.
• Cover the bottom of the prepared pan with 1/2 of the sharp Cheddar cheese.
• Mix together heavy cream, dry mustard, salt, and paprika in a bowl. Pour 1/2 of the mixture over the cheese in the prepared pan.
• Break eggs over the top, making sure not to break yolks. Cover with remaining cream mixture and top with remaining sharp Cheddar cheese.
• Bake in the preheated oven until eggs are set, about 20 minutes. Serve immediately.

FRENCH-STYLE BAKED EGGS & CHEESE

Steps:

• Beat the eggs to a nice consistency with a fork, pour them in a skillet as if you're scrambling them but DO NOT FULLY SCRAMBLE.
• When the eggs have been half-way scrambled, pour them into a large mixing bowl.
• Add the cheddar cheese and scallions to bowl, beat them into the eggs.
• Add the flour and baking powder, carefully whisk. It should have a thicker and pastier consistency now.
• Add the ricotta cheese and slowly whisk.
• Grease an 8" or 10" round baking pan with olive oil cooking spray. (8" for thicker and fluffier mixture, 10" for flatter and crispier mixture.).
• Pour the mixture into the pan.
• Top with parsley flakes or better yet some fresh parsley, so it bakes on there.
• Bake at 350 for 30-50 minutes or until it browns a little on top. (Allow less time if you're making the 10" crispy version and more time for the 8" fluffy version.).
• Slice into wedges and serve, salt and pepper to taste. (PS- bake in some red pepper flakes and this makes an AWESOME hangover remedy.).

FRENCH EGGS

Steps:

• Lightly butter four 4-ounce ramekins or egg coddlers. Cut each piece of fois gras pate into 4 cubes. Divide cubes among prepared dishes.
• Crack 1 egg into each dish, keeping yolks whole. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Drizzle 1 tablespoon cream over each egg.
• Sprinkle each with 1/2 tsp tarragon and parsley.
• Cover each dish tightly with foil.
• Fill large skillet with water to depth of 1/2 inch. Bring to simmer over medium heat. Add ramekins.
• Cook until egg whites are firm and yolks are still runny, about 8 minutes. Remove ramekins from water; remove foil and wipe ramekins dry.
• Drizzle 1 teaspoon of truffle oil on each egg. Serve with buttered toast.

BACON, EGG, AND CHEESE BAKED FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

• Spread bread on a rimmed baking sheet and let dry out, 4 to 6 hours. Preheat oven to 375°F. Toss tomatoes with oil; season with salt and pepper. Spread on one side of a parchment-lined 12 1/2-by-9 1/2-inch rimmed baking sheet (quarter sheet pan). On other side, arrange bacon in as close to a single layer as possible (it's okay if slices overlap slightly).
• Roast until tomatoes are wrinkled and beginning to soften and bacon is about three-quarters cooked, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from oven; transfer tomatoes and bacon to a plate. Discard fat and remove parchment. Wash sheet, then brush with oil or butter.
• In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Dip bread slices one at a time in egg mixture, turning to coat, then arrange on sheet in shingled, overlapping layers (we arranged ours in three rows of four).
• Pour remaining egg mixture evenly over top (it will pool on top and sink through to bottom, but will be absorbed as it sits). Sprinkle with parsley and cheese, then top with bacon and tomatoes. Refrigerate, covered, at least 1 hour and up to 24 hours.
• Preheat oven to 375°F. Bake French toast, uncovered, 15 minutes, then reduce temperature to 350° and continue baking until puffed and cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes more. Let cool slightly before serving.
