Recipe Redo: Herb Baked Eggs

When you are looking for that perfect simple breakfast that will wow your guests, it couldn’t get any simpler than these Herb Baked Eggs. They are easy to make, only take a few ingredients and with a few minutes under the broiler in those ramekins that you don’t use quite enough and *viola*!

I remember the first time I made them, I was shocked that I didn’t massacre them. Broilers and I are far from BFFs.  Then again, I don’t think that I’ve had a bad Barefoot Contessa recipe since I started cooking.  If you follow the instructions, I can pretty much promise that the dish will turn out perfect.  If you get distracted and get all Goldilocks with the oven the eggs will either come out not cooked enough or way too cooked and you really want them “just right”.  Timing is everything – take it from one that has had one too many kitchen disasters.

Make these for your next weekend brunch and enjoy the accolades!

On to the recipe:

The first bake – the cream and butter gets all toasty
