- In another bowl, but using the same beaters, whisk the egg yolks with the goat’s cheese, half the Parmesan, the cream and half the thyme leaves, chopped, if you prefer. Season.
- Stir about one third of the egg whites into the cheese mixture, then fold in the rest.
- Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan in the dishes. Divide the mixture between them and sprinkle with the rest of the chopped thyme.
- Place on a baking sheet and bake for 12-15 mins until puffed up and golden. Garnish with thyme sprigs. Serve immediately.
