Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 Ciabatta rolls
- 6 Large eggs
- 2 tablespoons Whole milk
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese, finely grated
- 4 slices Mozzarella cheese, sliced
- 8 slices Prosciutto
- 8 Fresh basil leaves
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Garlic powder
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice the ciabatta rolls in half horizontally and brush the cut sides lightly with olive oil. Place them on a baking sheet, cut side up. Toast in the oven for 5-7 minutes until golden and slightly crispy. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, Parmesan cheese, salt, ground black pepper, and garlic powder until fully combined.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Once melted, pour in the egg mixture.
Cook the eggs slowly, stirring gently with a spatula, until they form soft, fluffy curds and are just set. Remove from heat and keep warm.
In the same skillet, add the slices of prosciutto and cook for about 1-2 minutes on each side until they are crisp. Remove and set aside.
To assemble the sandwiches, layer the bottom half of each ciabatta roll with a slice of mozzarella cheese, followed by a portion of the scrambled eggs. Top the eggs with 2 slices of crispy prosciutto, 2 fresh basil leaves, and then place the top half of the ciabatta roll on top.
If desired, return the assembled sandwiches to the oven for an additional 2-3 minutes to melt the mozzarella cheese.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Italian Egg Sandwiches!
