Golden on top, soft and cheesy inside — this oven-baked breakfast is ready in 30 minutes.
Ingredients (Serves 4–6)
8 eggs
400 ml milk (whole or low-fat)
150 g cheese, grated (cheddar, mozzarella, or any meltable cheese)
Salt, to taste
Total Time: 35 minutes
Prep time: 5 min | Bake time: 25–30 min
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F).
Grease a baking dish with butter or oil.
2. Prepare the Egg Mixture
Crack the eggs into a large mixing bowl.
Add the milk and salt.
Whisk until smooth and fully combined.
3. Add the Cheese
Grate or finely chop the cheese and stir it into the egg mixture.
4. Bake
Pour the mixture into the greased baking dish.
Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until puffed and golden on top.
Use a toothpick or knife to test doneness — it should come out clean.
5. Cool & Serve
Let the dish cool for 5 minutes, then slice and serve warm.
Serving Ideas
Pair with toast, sliced avocado, or a fresh salad.
Add a dollop of sour cream or a sprinkle of chili flakes for extra flavor.
Serve with roasted potatoes or steamed vegetables for a fuller meal.
