Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 pieces large eggs
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1.5 cups shredded pepper jack cheese
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter (for greasing the pan)
- 0.25 cups chopped green onions (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with the unsalted butter to prevent sticking.
In a large mixing bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them until fully blended.
Add the whole milk to the eggs and whisk until smooth.
Stir in the shredded pepper jack cheese, salt, black pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder until evenly combined.
Pour the egg mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the egg bake is set and the top is golden brown.
Remove the egg bake from the oven and allow it to cool for 5 minutes before slicing into squares.
Optionally, sprinkle chopped green onions on top for a fresh garnish.
Serve warm and enjoy!
