Ingredients:
6 large eggs
2 cups cottage cheese (about 450 grams)
1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, grated
Instructions:
1. Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure your baked cottage cheese eggs cook evenly for the perfect texture.
2. Prepare the Baking Dish
Lightly grease a baking dish with cooking spray or a small amount of butter to prevent sticking and for easy cleanup.
3. Mix the Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, cottage cheese, and grated cheddar cheese. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well-blended, ensuring there are no large lumps. This combination creates a cheesy, creamy base that makes these cottage cheese eggs irresistible.
4. Season to Taste
Add salt and pepper according to your preference. For added flavor, feel free to sprinkle in garlic powder, onion powder, or fresh herbs like chives or parsley.
5. Pour into the Baking Dish
Transfer the mixture to your prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly to ensure an even bake.
6. Bake
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the eggs set and the top is golden brown. To check doneness, insert a knife into the center; if it comes out clean, your baked cottage cheese eggs are ready!
