Cozy Baked Cottage Cheese Eggs: A New Breakfast Favorite 🥚🧀
If you love starting your day with comfort food, these Baked Cottage Cheese Eggs are for you! With a perfect blend of creamy cottage cheese, melty mozzarella, and fresh herbs, this recipe brings together flavors that will brighten your morning or satisfy your brunch cravings.
Ingredients:
6 large eggs
1 cup full-fat cottage cheese
1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
2 tbsp fresh chives, finely chopped
1 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp smoked paprika (adds a lovely smoky depth)
Salt and pepper to taste
Olive oil or cooking spray for greasing
Instructions:
Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking dish with cooking spray or a drizzle of olive oil to prevent sticking.
Mix the Ingredients: Crack the eggs into a large bowl and whisk until smooth. Add cottage cheese, mozzarella, chives, parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir everything together until well combined.
Bake to Perfection: Pour the mixture evenly into your greased baking dish, smoothing the top with a spatula. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the eggs are fully set and the top turns a gorgeous golden brown.
Cool & Serve: Remove from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before slicing into portions. Serve warm as a comforting breakfast or brunch option.
Serving Tip: Pair this dish with a side of crispy toast or fresh avocado slices for a complete and satisfying meal. It also makes great leftovers—just reheat and enjoy!
