Baked Egg Breakfast Soufflé image

A few years ago we took some Alabama friends up to NY, Vermont and Montreal to see the sights and colors of fall in the Northeast. It seems like everywhere we stayed or ate there was a souffle of some sort on the menu. The Bed & Breakfast in Vermont served these one morning and wow were they good.

Categories     Eggs

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 11

butter, unsalted for greasing ramekins
4-6 large eggs, depending on the number serving 1 egg 1 ramekin
1/4 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp freshly ground black or white pepper
pinch freshly grated nutmeg
1/8 tsp cream of tartar
2 tsp parmigiano-reggiano, grated
OPTIONAL GARNISHES
1/4 tsp dijon mustard
1 tsp heavy cream
2 tsp mayonnaise

Steps:

  • 1. Position an oven rack in the middle position, and preheat the oven to 350°F. Butter four to six 8-ounce ramekins (serving size = one ramekin per egg; one egg per person). Separate the eggs, putting the whites into a large mixing bowl and carefully sliding the whole, unbroken yolks into a small bowl of cold water.
  • 2. Beat the egg whites with salt, pepper, nutmeg, and cream of tartar until they just hold stiff peaks. Fold in 1 tsp of cheese gently but thoroughly (reserve the other teaspoon). Fill the ramekins with the egg whites about halfway.
  • 3. Using your fingers, carefully remove the yolks from the water one at a time, and slip one yolk into ramekin, so it sits nestled in the egg whites. Fill the ramekins up to the mouth (leave about a finger of space where the lip of the ramekin is so that the souffle can puff up)
  • 4. Stir the garnishing ingredients and drizzle a bit on top of each yolk, then sprinkle with the remaining teaspoon of cheese. Bake the eggs until the whites are puffed and pale golden, about 10 minutes. The yolks should jiggle slightly. If you like your yolks more solid, 12 minutes should suffice. Serve hot.

This soufflé was a hit with my guests! It was light and fluffy, with a delicious cheesy flavor. I'll definitely be making this again for my next dinner party.

This soufflé was really good! It was light and fluffy, and the cheese was melted and gooey. I would definitely make this again for a special occasion.

This soufflé was okay. It was a bit too eggy for my taste, but the flavor was good. I think I would have liked it more if I had used less eggs.

This soufflé was a disaster! It didn't rise at all and it was very dense and rubbery. I'm not sure what I did wrong, but I definitely won't be making this recipe again.

Overall, this soufflé was pretty good. It was easy to make and it tasted good, but it wasn't anything special. I think I would have liked it more if I had used a different type of cheese.

This soufflé was a bit of a disappointment. It wasn't as light and fluffy as I expected, and the flavor was a bit bland. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I've made this soufflé several times now and it's always a hit. It's so easy to make and it always turns out perfect. I love that I can use any type of cheese I like, so I can customize it to my own taste.

This soufflé was amazing! It was so light and fluffy, and the cheese was perfectly melted. I served it with a side of roasted vegetables and it was a perfect meal.

This soufflé was easy to make and very tasty. I used a combination of cheddar and Gruyère cheese, and it was perfect. I would definitely make this again for a special breakfast or brunch.

I'm not a big fan of soufflés, but this one was really good! The eggs were cooked perfectly and the cheese was melted and gooey. I would definitely make this again.
