The 3 Main Ingredients
(Serves 4–6 | Uses a 9×9 inch or 10-inch baking pan)
* 8 large eggs
* ½ cup milk (or unsweetened plant-based milk)
* 1 ½ cups shredded cheese (Cheddar, Mozzarella, Monterey Jack, or a blend)
💡 Pro Tips:
* Whisk well: This ensures a light, custard-like texture.
* Use freshly grated cheese: Pre-shredded cheese doesn’t melt as smoothly.
* Grease the dish well: This prevents sticking and makes cleanup a breeze.
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Prep and Preheat
* Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F).
* Grease a 23×23 cm (9×9 in) baking dish or a 25 cm (10 in) cake pan.
2. Whisk and Pour
* In a large bowl, whisk eggs and milk until fully combined and slightly frothy.
* Stir in the shredded cheese.
* Pour the mixture into the prepared dish.
3. Bake to Perfection
* Bake for 25–30 minutes until the edges are golden brown and the center is set (not jiggly).
* Let it cool for 5 minutes before slicing.
4. Serve Hot
* Pairs great with buttered toast or roasted potatoes.
🌟 Easy Add-ins (Keep it Simple!)
While the base only needs 3 ingredients, you can customize it without any fuss:
* Veggie Boost: Add ½ cup frozen spinach (thawed/squeezed dry) or diced bell peppers.
* Meat Lovers: Add ½ cup cooked crumbled bacon or diced ham.
* Fresh Herbs: Add 2 tbsp chopped chives or parsley.
* Spicy: Add a pinch of chili flakes or diced jalapeños.
* ✅ Tip: Keep extra add-ins to ½ cup or less to maintain the egg-to-filling balance.
Storage & Meal Prep
* Fridge: Lasts up to 4 days in an airtight container.
* Reheating: * Microwave: 60–90 seconds.
* Oven: 10 mins at 160°C (320°F) for the best texture.
* Freezing: Slice, wrap in parchment paper, and freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge.
Frequently Asked Questions
* Can I make this dairy-free? Yes! Use unsweetened almond/oat milk and dairy-free cheese (or skip the cheese entirely).
* Can I use just egg whites? Yes, but whole eggs provide the best texture and richness.
* Why is it rubbery? Usually from overbaking. Take it out as soon as the center is firm.

This 3-ingredient baked breakfast proves that simplicity can be satisfying. It isn’t fancy, but it is reliable, nourishing, and ready when you are.
So crack the eggs, pour the milk, and bake with confidence. Because the best mornings aren’t complicated: they are calm, warm, and start with something delicious in the oven.
