Eggs in a baguette

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.

Step 2

Use a serrated knife to cut out 4 holes across the top of the baguette, making sure each is large enough to hold an egg. Wrap the sides of the baguette with aluminum foil to hold it in place and place on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 3

In a small bowl, combine the butter, garlic, parsley, salt, and pepper.

Step 4

Spread the holes in the baguette with the garlic butter, then crack an egg into each hole.

Step 5

Bake the baguette for 15–20 minutes, or until the whites are cooked through but the yolks are still runny.

Step 6

Garnish with chives and black pepper, then cut the baguette crosswise between the eggs into individual servings. Serve immediately.

Step 7

Enjoy!
