These Prosciutto Baked Eggs are a spectacular easy breakfast featuring beautifully fresh ingredients.
Some nights there is nothing better than breakfast for supper. Especially when you have an easy flavourful dish that takes simple baked eggs to the next level of deliciousness.
I found this recipe on sweetsugarbean and knew immediately I would be making it.
The only changes I made were to use mozzarella. I would have used Reggiano Parmigiano if I had some available. I used chopped green onion in place of the of chives.

The prosciutto gives it just the right amount of saltiness. The addition of the cream mixed with the mozzarella gave the eggs a fantastic creaminess.
To have eggs that are a touch runnier start checking them around the 8 -9 minute mark.
