How to Make Egg In Cheese Meringue Nest
- Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C) with a rack in the middle.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- Separate 2 large eggs, placing the yolks in separate small bowls and the whites in a large, clean, grease-free mixing bowl.
- Add a pinch of salt to the egg whites.
- Beat the egg whites with an electric mixer, starting on low speed and gradually increasing to high speed, until stiff, glossy peaks form.
- Gently fold in 1/4 cup (30g) of finely grated Gruyere cheese. Be careful not to deflate the egg whites.
- Spoon two mounds of the egg white mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, shaping them into nests with indentations in the centers.
- Bake for 3 minutes.
- Carefully remove the baking sheet from the oven. Gently crack one egg yolk into the center of each nest.
- Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for another 3-4 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the yolks are cooked to your liking.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
