Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 cup Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, melted
- 4 Eggs, beaten
- 0.25 cup Chopped green onions (optional)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 as needed Nonstick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare an 8x8-inch baking dish by spraying it evenly with nonstick cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded cheddar cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, and all-purpose flour. Mix well to coat the cheese evenly in the flour.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, beaten eggs, chopped green onions (if using), salt, and black pepper until fully combined.
Pour the wet ingredients over the cheese and flour mixture. Stir together until fully incorporated into a thick batter.
Transfer the batter to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is set.
Remove from the oven and let the dish cool for 5 minutes. Cut into small squares using a sharp knife.
Serve warm and enjoy these cheesy, buttery squares as a delightful appetizer or snack!
