Baked Eggs - Eggs Baked in a Spicy Creamy Tomato Sauce - Father's Day Brunch Idea

heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

Preheat the oven to 400°F (204°C).

Spoon about 1/4 inch of tomato sauce into a heatproof baking dish or ramekin.

Season the tomato sauce with red pepper flakes and black pepper.

Sprinkle some fresh Italian parsley on top of the sauce.

Make a trough in the sauce using the edge of a spoon to create a depression for the eggs.

Crack the eggs into a ramekin first to check for broken eggs, then slide them into the trough in the sauce.

Dust generously with grated Parmesan cheese.

Drizzle a couple teaspoons of olive oil over the top.

Drizzle heavy cream over the eggs using a trick to create a spout with the cream container.

Season with a touch of salt and place in the preheated oven.

Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until the yolks are just set, shaking the dish to check that only the yolks are wiggling.

Mix the yolk with the white using a spoon, incorporating some of the tomato mixture as desired.

Season with more salt, cayenne, and fresh herbs before serving.
