Baked Eggs Recipe with Spinach and Tomato

baked eggs

This baked eggs recipe is a delicious treat for breakfast or brunch, and it’s easy to prepare even though it looks super fancy. I’m throwing spinach, tomato, and Roman cheese in this baked eggs recipe, but it’s a versatile dish, and anything that’ll work in an omelet will work in this preparation. For a spicier version, add a dash or two of hot sauce as the tomatoes cook.

How to Make Oven Baked Eggs

  • Add green onion tops and spinach, and any fresh herbs you desire.
  • Saute until spinach is wilted.
  • Lightly grease an oven-safe dish. If you like the dishes I used in the video, you can check out current prices for au gratin baking dishes on Amazon.
  • Add a layer of cheese to bottom of the if you like, but this is optional.
  • Spoon and spread the spinach and tomato mixture into the bottom of the dish.
  • Drizzle Half n Half or cream over top and then sprinkle shredded Parmesan or Romano cheese.
  • Carefully crack eggs and top the dish with them.
  • Place in an oven preheated to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. If the baking dish/ramekins are small, place on a baking sheet for easy handling
  • Bake 15-20 minutes, or until the eggs are set and cooked as desired.
  • When eggs are finished baking, top with additional cheese if desired. Sprinkle with paprika or garnish with fresh parsley, or basil, or cilantro, or whatever, but a touch of freshly chopped green will make this dish quite lovely.
