Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 10 large eggs
- 1.5 cups whole milk
- 2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 0.5 cup green onions, chopped
- 0.5 cup cooked bacon, crumbled
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick spray or butter.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, whole milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
In a separate small bowl, mix the all-purpose flour and baking powder. Gradually sprinkle this mixture into the egg mixture while continuously whisking, ensuring no lumps form.
Stir in the melted butter, shredded cheddar cheese, shredded mozzarella cheese, green onions, and crumbled cooked bacon.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the casserole is golden brown on top and the center is set. You can test by inserting a knife into the center—if it comes out clean, the casserole is done.
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing into squares.
Serve warm and enjoy your delicious Cheesy Egg Casserole Mrsmelie!
