Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 large Hard-boiled eggs
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 1.5 cups Milk
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper
- 0.5 cup Breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a medium-sized casserole dish with butter or non-stick spray.
Peel the hard-boiled eggs and slice them into thick rounds. Set aside.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Once melted, whisk in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, until the mixture turns golden and forms a roux.
Gradually add milk to the roux, whisking constantly to avoid lumps. Cook for 4-5 minutes until the sauce begins to thicken.
Add the shredded cheddar cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper to the sauce. Stir well until the cheese has fully melted and the sauce is smooth.
Layer half of the sliced eggs in the prepared casserole dish. Pour half of the cheese sauce over the eggs, spreading it evenly. Repeat with the remaining eggs and cheese sauce.
In a small bowl, combine breadcrumbs with olive oil and chopped parsley. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the top of the casserole.
Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and allow the casserole to cool for a few minutes. Garnish with additional parsley if desired, and serve warm.
