Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Fresh spinach leaves
- 4 pieces Large eggs
- 240 ml Milk
- 150 grams Shredded cheddar cheese
- 50 grams Grated Parmesan cheese
- 60 grams Breadcrumbs
- 30 grams Unsalted butter
- 2 cloves Minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Nutmeg
- 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F). Grease a medium-sized baking dish with a thin layer of butter or cooking spray.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add olive oil. Sauté the minced garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add the fresh spinach leaves to the skillet in batches, stirring occasionally, until all the spinach is wilted. This will take about 4-5 minutes. Season the spinach with 0.5 teaspoon of salt, 0.25 teaspoon of ground black pepper, and nutmeg. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and all-purpose flour until smooth. Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, 25 grams of Parmesan cheese, and the remaining 0.5 teaspoon of salt.
Spread the cooked spinach evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Pour the egg mixture over the spinach, ensuring it is evenly distributed.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter and mix it with the breadcrumbs and the remaining 25 grams of Parmesan cheese. Sprinkle this breadcrumb mixture evenly over the top of the casserole.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the egg mixture is set.
Allow the casserole to cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy your Spinach Bake N Brunch with a side salad or toast!
