Cheesy Oven Scrambled Eggs

Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 12 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • chopped parsley, for garnish

Method

  1. Set your oven to 275 F. Use the butter to coat the interior of a 9x13 inch baking dish thoroughly.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, and pepper until fully combined.
  3. Transfer the egg mixture into the butter-coated baking dish.
  4. Place the dish in the oven and bake for 20 minutes. After 10 minutes, use a rubber spatula to stir the eggs.
  5. Continue baking for another 5 minutes. Take the dish out, add the shredded cheddar cheese, and stir it in well with the spatula. Return to the oven for a final 5 minutes until the eggs are set and creamy.
  6. Finish by sprinkling chopped parsley over the top and serve straight away.
