Notes
To make these baked shirred eggs healthier, you can add some chopped veggies of your choice into the ramekins before you add in the eggs. Sauteed mushrooms, bell peppers, zucchini, spinach and onions are great choices.
Remember not to overcook the eggs. The idea is to make sure that the egg whites are set and the yolks are still slightly runny.
If you have bigger sized ramekins, you can crack two eggs into each.
To keep the egg yolks from turning solidifying along with the whites, use a spoon to gently get the yolk to the center of the ramekin, and make sure it doesn’t touch the sides.
