Emerils Breakfast In Bed Baked Eggs Recipes

EMERIL'S BREAKFAST-IN-BED BAKED EGGS

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, sift together flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Make a well in center of flour mixture; whisk egg yolks and 1/4 cup milk into flour mixture, then gradually add 1 cup milk to form a smooth batter. Let rest at least 30 minutes (or refrigerate in an airtight container overnight).
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Butter six 4-ounce ramekins. In a medium skillet, melt butter over medium. Add onion and cook until translucent, 8 minutes; let cool 10 minutes. Divide onion, ham, and Gruyere among ramekins.
• Whisk egg whites until soft peaks form. Gently fold into batter with a rubber spatula. Spoon over onion mixture and sprinkle with chives. Place ramekins on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until golden and puffed, 18 to 20 minutes. Serve warm.
