Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 pieces large eggs
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1.5 cups cooked ham, diced
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 3 stalks green onions, sliced
- 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 as needed nonstick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until smooth and well combined.
Add the melted butter, diced ham, shredded cheddar cheese, shredded mozzarella cheese, and sliced green onions into the egg mixture. Stir to combine evenly.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper until no lumps remain.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is set. To test, insert a toothpick in the middle; it should come out clean.
Let the breakfast bake cool for 5 minutes before slicing into squares or rectangles.
Serve warm and enjoy! Refrigerate leftovers for up to 3 days, reheating as needed.
