Eggs en cocotte, sounds sorta fancy, huh? But it’s really nothing more than over-baked eggs. Bake the eggs in individual ramekins and top with whatever you have on hand. Ready in 15 min!
It’s a simple dish you can quickly throw together, even for a large crowd.
The best part is you can make it any way you want. I usually make mine with chanterelles or porcinis for their strong flavor and then accompany it with some wilted greens or with broccolini, as you see in the pictures. The rest of the family here likes theirs with crumbled sausage and a little cheese. See what I mean about it being highly adaptable?

I love this idea, I have friends coming round on Sunday, all with different dietary requirements (e.g. whole 30, dairy free, vegetarian) I can get all the ingredients ready in the fridge the night before then we can just build and bake after our run!
Thanks for a super idea!

Joanna @ the knitlit twit says
I also start thinking about Christmas in summer, partly because I knit or sew some of them, so I need a little more preparation. These eggs looks gorgeous and delicious. Forget just breakfast, I think I need them for a quick breakfast-for-dinner during the week.
