Take brunch to a whole new level with these Creamy Parmesan Baked Eggs! These baked eggs are easy to prepare and ideal for breakfast or brunch!

Creamy-Parmesan Baked Eggs for breakfast, the most important meal of the day. Though these eggs are so good, I’d have them for lunch or dinner as well. Make sure you have lots of toast or crusty bread to dunk into all that goodness.

I have to start by saying this is one of the easiest breakfast recipes I’ve ever made! Eggs and parmesan cheese? You’re talking my love language here. Requiring just a handful of simple ingredients and only a few steps to complete, these creamy parmesan baked eggs make for a wonderful breakfast or brunch on the weekend!

Creamy baked eggs?

Have you ever had baked eggs before? These creamy parmesan baked eggs are unlike any breakfast item you’ve tried before.

These baked eggs are great because they’re super versatile so you can add to them anything you like. Bacon, ham, maybe some veggies like broccoli, asparagus or mushrooms. Whatever you like, but first I’d recommend trying out this simple recipe and see how creamy and delicious they are.

  • Eggs – large.
  • Cream – I used heavy cream, use half and half for a lighter fare.
  • Butter – unsalted.
  • Cheese – Freshly grated parmesan cheese is the way to go.
  • Salt & Pepper – to taste.

How to serve

These eggs are very creamy, and the Parmesan gives them a nice cheesy flavor! I always love to garnish these eggs either with a bit of parsley or chives. The best way to serve them is with toast or some freshly made crusty bread! I always say the simplest of meals are the best.

These are delicious! I make them monthly at least! Sometimes I do not have heavy cream so will use milk our sour cream. Still very tasty! Thank you for this simple yet great recipe 🙂

This was very easy to make. The taste was creamy and delicious. The only negative was that the eggs very not cooked long enough for my liking. Next time I will bake for a little longer. I used toasted pita bread triangles and they were great with the egg and cheese mixture. This is a keeper for my recipe file. Thanks

Wonderful… Followed the recipe to the letter but cooked them in my air fryer at 400 for 9 minutes and they were delicious. A nice addition for breakfast options.
As always thanks for sharing!

I never tire of our favourite Brekky or Brunch, with toasted french bread….I cut back on the salt, however, because of Parmesan Cheese….
Thanks JO…

I’m a simple guy in the kitchen and love this recipe. I garnish with a splash of mild hot sauce made in NC called DURN GOOD…not as hot as traditional hot sauce and it adds a mild zing to this wonderful creamy baked eggs recipe. Sourdough toast is my preference. Love your recipes!

A historic restaurant in our town that is sadly now gone (owner passed away and his children who were retirement age sold the restaurant. It is now a Bistro with no character as they took out all of the wooden paneling.) had Parmesan eggs on their menu each fall through the new year. I have made them at home but have never seen a recipe. Thanks.

I made this today, and my goodness, it was incredible. Well, to be honest, I made something that was inspired by this. I hate Parmesan, so I thought I’d throw in some chives for flavor instead, and when I was digging them out of my refrigerator, I found some cooked rice noodles, so I threw those in as well. And a little chopped tomato went in, too. But the essence of it, the cream and the egg cooked together, oh, that was incredible. Such flavor! The rice noodles gave it a bit of body, and around the edges the noodles, cream, and egg baked together into quite a solid form, but I took it out of the oven before the center was set, and it was rich and creamy.

Hi, Miss Jo. I was so sad last time because I found out that the comment section of your blog doesn’t work, but now its back and so are you. Now I”m happy! By the way, made this for a Sunday party and everyone asked for the recipe. Oh, yes, they all liked your devilish egg too. Thanks and have a nice day!
