Ingredients
  

  • 10 large eggs preferably pasture-raised
  • 1 cup milk whole or 2%; use unsweetened almond milk for dairy-free
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt full-fat for creaminess
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper freshly ground
  • 1 1/2 cups cheddar cheese shredded (sharp or mild)
  • 4 cups cubed day-old bread Texas toast or sourdough
  • 1 cup diced cooked ham or crumbled cooked bacon or sautéed mushrooms/veggies
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh chives or parsley for brightness
  • 1 tbsp olive oil or melted butter for richness

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with olive oil or nonstick spray.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, Greek yogurt, salt, and pepper until well blended and slightly frothy.
  • Stir in cheddar cheese, cubed bread, ham (or veggies), and chopped chives until evenly coated.
  • Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, press gently to pack evenly, and let it rest for 10 minutes at room temperature.
  • Bake for 35-40 minutes until golden brown and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Broil for extra color if desired.
  • Let it sit for 5 minutes before slicing. Enjoy piping hot slices of this delicious Egg Bake!

Notes

Use slightly stale bread for better absorption. Greek yogurt adds fluffiness. Customize with different fillings like ham, mushrooms, or veggies.
