Ingredients
- 6 large Eggs
- 0.25 cup Milk
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 8 slices Bacon
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 1 tablespoon Chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
Step 2
Lay the bacon slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they do not overlap.
Step 3
Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake the bacon for 12-15 minutes or until crispy. Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the bacon. Remove and set aside on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Step 4
While the bacon is cooking, prepare the eggs. Grease an 8x8-inch baking dish (or similar-sized oven-safe dish) with butter.
Step 5
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined and slightly frothy.
Step 6
Pour the egg mixture into the greased baking dish and sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top.
Step 7
Place the dish in the oven (use the middle rack) and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the eggs are puffed up and set in the middle.
Step 8
Remove the eggs from the oven and let them rest for 1-2 minutes. Cut into squares for serving.
Step 9
Serve the fluffy baked eggs alongside the crispy bacon and garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired. Enjoy your delicious breakfast!
