I love eggs for breakfast and this breakfast egg dish is one I love so much. Creamy ricotta, fresh spinach and a cracked egg bake up together to make a breakfast that is both healthy and satisfying.

Creamy ricotta and a soft, runny yolk are my idea of a delicious breakfast. I am a sucker for a runny yolk!

How to make Baked Ricotta Spinach Eggs

1. Prep the ramekins: Preheat oven to 375 and grease 4 ramekins with olive oil or butter.
   
   
2. Make the ricotta mixture: Mix ricotta, olive oil, spinach, Parmesan, basil and salt and pepper in a bowl to combine.
   
   
3. Assemble the ramekins: Spoon equally into the 4 ramekins. Create a well in the middle of each ramekin and crack an egg into each one.

That’s it! Pretty easy, right?
