Instructions

1
Preheat your oven's broiler on high. Position the oven rack about 6 inches from the broiler element.
2
Generously butter a small oven-safe ramekin, custard cup, or cast iron skillet.
3
Crack the eggs into the prepared dish, being careful not to break the yolks.
4
Drizzle with cream if using, and season lightly with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese and a pinch of paprika.
5
Place the dish under the broiler and cook for 2-4 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.
6
The eggs are done when the whites are set and the tops are golden brown with slightly caramelized edges.
7
Remove from oven immediately and let cool for 30 seconds. Serve hot with toast or English muffins.
