Egg Soufflés
When I first mentioned making soufflés to my husband, he asked what they were. I started listing off dessert soufflés – namely of the chocolate and vanilla varieties with powdered sugar and fresh fruit.
Though desserts were what initially came to mind, I decided to try out easy egg soufflés first – mostly out of ease. They’re full of veggies, fresh basil, a bit of parmesan cheese for taste, and smoked paprika (one of my favorite secret ingredients in my spice cupboard).
This recipe is made in a single 3-quart baking dish (an 8×8 or 9×9 will do), but I’ve also followed basically the same recipe in mini coquette dishes, making them miniature and individual to serve, rather than in one single dish.
What can you put in egg soufflés?
My recipe just calls for finely chopped greens and fresh basil along with a few tablespoons of parmesan. The filling options are endless, however, including sauteed vegetables, more cheese, and even finely chopped bacon or sausage!
Want to make it a complete meal, add roasted potatoes, a breakfast salad, or a bread, including these orange carrot muffins or these champagne grape brie scones!!
An egg soufflé is an easy breakfast dish. It’s baked in the oven and filled with combinations of cheese, vegetables, and/or meats.
It’s generally best to cook and bake with room temperature eggs. Though it’s not mandatory for egg soufflés, it is better.
These egg souffles are actually pretty simple. If you want to up the delectability of breakfast, try your hand at these Amish doughnuts – think homemade glazed donuts. Drooling over those too.
