Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 large Eggs
- 0.25 cup Whole milk
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Gruyère cheese, shredded
- 0.5 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 3 ounces Cream cheese, cubed
- 1 tablespoon Butter, melted
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a small baking dish (approximately 8x8 inches or similar) with butter or cooking spray.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, whole milk, salt, and black pepper until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Stir in the shredded Gruyère cheese, shredded Cheddar cheese, and grated Parmesan cheese, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the egg mixture.
Gently fold in the cubed cream cheese to the egg mixture. Do not overmix; the cream cheese cubes should remain intact for pockets of creamy texture.
Pour the egg mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly. Drizzle the melted butter across the top for added richness.
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 25 minutes, or until the eggs are set and lightly golden on top. You can check doneness by inserting a knife into the center; it should come out clean.
Once baked, remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes to cool slightly. Sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley for a burst of color and flavor, if desired.
Slice into portions and serve warm. Enjoy your 'Egg Heaven Cheese Lovers' masterpiece!
