Ingredients

• 6 pieces Large eggs
• 6 pieces Thick-cut ham slices
• 1 cup Swiss cheese, shredded
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 1 cup Whole milk
• 1 teaspoon Ground Dijon mustard
• 0.5 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes until the mixture is golden and smooth, forming a roux.

Step 3

Gradually whisk in the milk, heavy cream, mustard, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring often, until the sauce thickens to a creamy consistency. Remove from heat and stir in half of the shredded Swiss cheese until melted and smooth.

Step 4

In the prepared baking dish, arrange the ham slices, one for each serving. Crack one egg on top of each slice of ham, making sure the yolk stays intact.

Step 5

Pour the prepared cheese sauce evenly over the top of the eggs and ham. Sprinkle the remaining Swiss cheese over the dish.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolks remain slightly runny (or cook longer for firmer yolks, if desired).

Step 7

Once baked, sprinkle the dish with chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color and flavor.

Step 8

Serve hot with toasted bread, biscuits, or grits for a hearty Southern-inspired meal.
