2 1/2 tablespoons freshly chopped thyme leaves

12 eggs, preferably organic

Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

Rub the inside of 6 ramekins with the butter and then season with the thyme, distributing both equally amongst the ramekins.

Add 2 eggs to each, season with salt and pepper.

Place the ramekins in a baking dish, and pour water into the baking dish until it is halfway up the sides of the ramekins.

Carefully place the baking dish in the pre-heated oven.

Bake eggs for 15 minutes, or until set and golden on top.
