Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 hard-boiled eggs
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon bread crumbs
- 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a small baking dish and set it aside.
Peel the hard-boiled eggs and slice them in half lengthwise. Remove the yolks and place them in a small bowl, setting the egg whites aside.
Mash the yolks with a fork and mix in 1 tablespoon of shredded cheddar cheese, the dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth.
Spoon or pipe the yolk mixture back into the hollows of the egg whites. Arrange the stuffed eggs in the prepared baking dish with the filled side facing up.
In a small saucepan, heat the butter over medium heat until melted. Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute to form a smooth paste (roux).
Gradually whisk in the milk, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Cook the mixture until it thickens, about 2-3 minutes.
Remove the pan from heat and stir in the remaining shredded cheddar cheese until melted and smooth. Season the cheese sauce with a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
Pour the cheese sauce evenly over the stuffed eggs in the baking dish. Sprinkle the top with bread crumbs for a crispy finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbling and the bread crumbs are golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve warm.
