Experience the comforting embrace of rich eggs and vibrant spinach in a classic French dish that takes only minutes to prepare!

1

Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit).

2

In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat and add the spinach. Cook for about 3 to 5 minutes until wilted.

3

In a bowl, whisk together the cream, a pinch of salt, and pepper.

4

Grease the ramekins with some butter and distribute the cooked spinach evenly among them.

5

Crack one egg into each ramekin over the spinach, and then pour the cream mixture carefully around the egg without covering it.

6

Sprinkle cheese on top of each egg.

7

Place the ramekins in a baking dish and fill the dish with hot water halfway up the sides of the ramekins. This will create a gentle steam while baking.

8

Bake in the preheated oven for about 15 to 20 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolk is still runny.

9

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.

• Add herbs like chives or parsley for extra flavor.
• Top with a dollop of homemade pesto before serving.
• Substitute the spinach for other greens like Swiss chard or kale.

• Use high-quality eggs for the best flavor and texture.
• Make sure not to overbake the eggs; they should be just set with a runny yolk.
• Experiment with different types of cheese for varied flavor profiles.
