Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 pieces large eggs
- 0.5 cups whole milk
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.5 cups cheddar cheese, shredded
- 2 tablespoons chives, chopped
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl and whisk thoroughly until the yolks and whites are fully combined.
Add the whole milk, salt, and black pepper to the eggs, and whisk again until all the ingredients are well incorporated.
Grease a medium-sized (approximately 9x9 inch) baking dish with the butter, ensuring the bottom and sides are evenly coated.
Pour the egg mixture into the prepared baking dish.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the egg mixture.
Place the baking dish into the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the eggs are set and slightly golden around the edges.
Once baked, remove the dish from the oven and let it sit for a couple of minutes to cool slightly.
Garnish the baked scrambled eggs with chopped chives and serve warm.
