How to Make Baked Eggs With Ham And Chives

  1. Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C).
  2. Butter each ramekin or custard cup.
  3. Place 2 tablespoons of diced ham in the bottom of each ramekin.
  4. Crack 2 large eggs gently into each ramekin.
  5. Add 1 tablespoon of heavy cream to each ramekin.
  6. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of chopped chives, salt, pepper, and any optional fresh herbs (parsley, chervil, or tarragon).
  7. Place ramekins in a baking dish or roasting pan.
  8. Carefully pour enough warm water into the baking dish to come halfway up the sides of the ramekins (creating a water bath).
  9. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the egg whites are completely set and the yolks are thickened but still slightly runny.
  10. Check eggs at 3-minute intervals after 12 minutes to prevent overcooking.
  11. Serve immediately in the ramekins.
