Soup ramekins are small, versatile dishes that are usually used to serve soup or stews. However, these little bowls can do so much more than just hold liquids. They can actually be used in a number of creative ways that might surprise you. In this article, we'll be sharing 5 creative ways to use soup ramekins beyond soup.
Baked Eggs
One of the easiest ways to use soup ramekins is to bake eggs in them. All you need is some butter or oil, eggs, salt, and pepper. Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F. Grease each ramekin with butter or oil and crack one egg into each dish. Season with salt and pepper to your liking. Place the ramekins on a baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes or until the whites are set and the yolks are still runny. Serve hot with some crispy bacon, toast, and coffee.
Individual Pies or Cobblers
If you're looking for a way to serve individual portions of pies or cobblers, soup ramekins are the perfect size. You can make small apple, berry or peach pies, or even savory pies, like chicken pot pies. Just line each ramekin with your favorite pie crust, fill it with your desired filling, and bake according to your pie recipe. You'll have cute little pies that are perfect for individual servings.
Cheese or Chocolate Fondue
Soup ramekins are also great for serving cheese or chocolate fondue. You can melt cheese or chocolate in a saucepan and then transfer the melted mixture to the ramekins. Then, dip bread, fruit, or veggies into the cheese or chocolate for a delicious treat. This is perfect for parties, date nights or just for a cozy night in.
Cute Appetizers or Desserts
Soup ramekins can be used to serve cute appetizers or desserts such as mini quiches, cupcakes or muffins. With ramekins, the size of your appetizers or desserts will be reduced, and your guests will enjoy the cute and unique presentation.
Bath Bombs or Candles
Finally, soup ramekins can be used to make cute small bath bombs or candles. To make bath bombs, mix baking soda, citric acid, Epsom salt, essential oils, and food coloring. Mix well and pack the mixture into the ramekins. Wait for them to dry, and you have adorable little bath bombs. You can also use them to make homemade candles by melting beeswax, adding essential oils, and pouring it into the ramekins. They make great gifts for friends and family.
