How to Make Baked Egg Boats

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Cut a deep V-shaped slit into the top of each baguette, stopping about ½ inch from the bottom.
  3. Gently pull apart the baguette halves to create a small cavity, but don't remove too much bread.
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and cream.
  5. Add the cooked pancetta (or bacon), shredded cheese, chopped chives, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Whisk to combine.
  6. Spoon the egg mixture evenly into each baguette boat.
  7. Place the filled baguettes onto a baking sheet.
  8. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the egg mixture is set, the bread is golden brown, and the filling is puffed.
  9. Let cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving. Garnish with extra chives, if desired.
