  4. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until well combined.
  5. Stir in the shredded cheese, cooked bacon, chives, salt, and pepper.
  6. Place the hollowed baguettes onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  7. Evenly distribute the egg mixture into the bread boats.

  9. Allow the boats to cool for 5 minutes before slicing into sections for service.
