4 Servings
Ingredients
- 8 eggs
- 1/4 cup chives minced
- 2 green onions minced
- 1/2 cup cream
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 1/2 cup feta cheese crumbled
- 8 slices whole wheat bread toasted and cut into long strips for dipping
- Non-stick cooking spray for greasing the muffin tin
Instructions
Prepare the Muffin Tin
- Lightly spray the cups of a standard muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking and ensure clean removal of the baked eggs.
Add the Eggs
- Crack one egg into each muffin cup, ensuring that the yolk remains intact if a runny texture is preferred.
Prepare the Cream Mixture
- In a small bowl, combine the minced chives, minced green onions, and cream. Stir until thoroughly blended.
Season the Eggs
- Sprinkle each egg with the measured salt and pepper to ensure even seasoning.
Add the Cream Mixture
- Pour the prepared cream mixture evenly over the eggs in each muffin cup, distributing it as uniformly as possible.
Add the Feta Cheese
- Sprinkle the feta cheese evenly over the surface of each egg and cream mixture.
Bake the Eggs
- Place the muffin tin in a preheated 400°F (205°C) oven. Bake for approximately 10 minutes for a soft, runny interior, or continue cooking until the eggs reach the preferred level of doneness.
Serve
- Remove the baked eggs carefully from the muffin tin. Serve immediately with the toasted whole wheat bread strips for dipping.
