Ingredients

• 300 grams Fresh spinach
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 200 milliliters Heavy cream
• 4 Eggs
• 2 tablespoons Breadcrumbs
• 50 grams Grated Gruyere or Parmesan cheese
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
• 0.125 teaspoons Nutmeg
• 1 teaspoon Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F).

Step 2

Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the spinach and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 3

Stir in the heavy cream, salt, black pepper, and nutmeg. Cook for an additional 2 minutes until the mixture thickens slightly. Remove from heat.

Step 4

Grease two small ovenproof dishes or ramekins with the remaining butter. Divide the creamy spinach mixture evenly between the ramekins, spreading it out to create a flat base.

Step 5

Gently crack two eggs into each ramekin, being careful not to break the yolks.

Step 6

In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs and grated cheese. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the tops of the eggs.

Step 7

Drizzle a small amount of olive oil over the breadcrumb topping for extra crispness.

Step 8

Place the ramekins on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the egg whites are set, but the yolks remain slightly runny.

Step 9

Carefully remove the ramekins from the oven and let them cool for a minute before serving. Serve warm with crusty bread or a fresh side salad for a complete meal.
