Baked caprise eggs

I love it when i make caprise, so when i saw this recipe i knew i was gonna like it. I find this simple to make when i know i will be in the kitchen cooking or doing other things like washing dishes etc...It's easy to put together and throw in the oven and tastes sublime.

For 2 servings

4 eggs
a handful of grape tomatoes slice in half
4 oz mozzarella cheese
8 basil leaves
2 oz milk
salt and pepper
soft butter for ramekins

Butter each oven safe ramekin.


  • Divide tomatoes, cheese and basil and place in each ramekin. Reserve some for top layer. 
  • Crack 2 eggs in each ramekin and season with salt and pepper. 
  • Add 1/2 tsp of cream or milk to each egg. 
  • Add a  few more tomatoes, cheese, and basil on top of the eggs
  •  Bake at 350 for 5-8 minutes.
  • Turn on broiler and bake for 5 more minutes. 
  • Monitor eggs carefully for desired softness or hardness.
