Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F.

Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper.

Add the shredded cheese. Fold with a rubber spatula until evenly distributed.

Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish.

Bake the casserole on middle rack of oven until golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 40-45 minutes.

Check to see that casserole is done. Remove from oven or add time as needed.

Allow casserole to rest for at least 10 minutes before serving. Cut the casserole into squares, or simply spoon onto plates.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Whisk Like a Pro 🥚
For the smoothest, most uniform casserole, whisk eggs and milk thoroughly until completely blended with no streaks of egg white remaining.
Temperature Precision 🌡️
Always allow ingredients like eggs and milk to come to room temperature before mixing to ensure even cooking and optimal texture.
Cheese Distribution Magic 🧀
Grate your own cheddar cheese instead of using pre-shredded, as it melts more evenly and creates a smoother, more luxurious casserole.
Pan Selection Secrets 🥘
Use a ceramic or glass baking dish for more even heat distribution and to prevent potential scorching at the edges of your casserole.
Flavor Boost Hack 🌿
Consider adding a small amount of dried herbs like thyme or a pinch of nutmeg to elevate the flavor profile of your egg and cheese casserole.
