Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease four 8-ounce ramekins with butter or spray, and place them on a baking sheet.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add minced shallots and sauté for about 3 minutes until soft.
  3. Add 8 ounces of mixed fresh mushrooms and a pinch of kosher salt. Sauté for about 5 minutes until softened and golden. Stir in 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh thyme.
  4. In a bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs, 3/4 cup of milk, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper until smooth.
  5. Distribute the sautéed mushrooms evenly among the ramekins. Sprinkle with 1/2 cup of shredded cheese, then pour the egg mixture into each ramekin until just below the rim.
  6. Bake for 20-25 minutes until puffed and golden brown. Ensure the center is set by gently jiggling the ramekins.
  7. Let the bakes cool for a couple of minutes before serving. Enjoy warm, paired with fresh salads or fruit.
