Ingredients for Spinach Baked Eggs
You’ll need the following ingredients to make my baked eggs in spinach:
- Eggs: Because you can’t make baked eggs without ’em!
- Spinach: The recipe calls for fresh spinach, if you’d like to use frozen spinach, ensure that it’s completely thawed and as much water is pressed out as possible. You can also use kale or chard.
- Heavy Cream: To create the creamed spinach and add some healthy fats.
- Goat Cheese: To enhance the creaminess and add a bit more fat and protein. If you’re not a fan of goat cheese, you can use feta cheese, gruyere cheese, parmesan cheese, or cream cheese instead.
In addition to the above you’ll also need some salt and pepper to season, and a big slice of crusty bread, I recommend sourdough, to serve with the baked eggs.
Dietary Adaptions
To Make it Gluten-Free: No adaptations are needed, the recipe is gluten-free. Simply serve the eggs with gluten-free bread.
To Make it Higher Protein: Use a larger ramekin or oven-safe dish and add an additional egg or two.
To Make it Higher in Fiber: Use a larger ramekin or oven-safe dish and fill it with additional spinach.
To Make it Lower in Fat: Use fat-free cheese and swap the heavy cream for half-and-half.
