For 4 smaller servings, use smaller ramekins and check for doneness at 18 to 20 minutes.
Store covered in the fridge for up to one week.
Freeze for up to 3 months. Reheat in the microwave for 20 to 30 seconds.
The Ramekins are large. You will get a large serving. You can use smaller sizes and get 4 servings instead of 2.
