quick idea for Easter brunch with the family

Fill a large, shallow casserole dish with boiling water. Butter two ramekins (or a muffin tin) and line each with a slice of bacon. Crack an egg into each ramekin and season with salt and pepper. Whisk the crème fraîche with the cheese and a little butter and add to the eggs. Carefully place the ramekins in the casserole dish and bake at 180°C (convection oven) for about 8 minutes. Remove the eggs from the oven and set aside. Finely chop the chives and sprinkle over the eggs. Enjoy!
