Ingredients
- 8 Eggs
- 1/2 cup Heavy cream
- 1 cup Broccoli florets
- 3/4 cup Cheddar
- 1/2 Red pepper
- 1/2 tsp Garlic powder
Steps
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9-inch baking dish with butter or oil.
- Chop the broccoli into small florets and dice the red pepper small — small pieces cook through in the time the eggs set.
- Whisk the eggs, heavy cream, garlic powder, and a pinch of salt in a large bowl until smooth.
- Fold in the broccoli, red pepper, and half of the cheddar; pour everything into the prepared dish and spread it evenly.
- Sprinkle the remaining cheddar over the top.
- Bake for 28-32 minutes, until puffed, golden on top, and the center is just set — a knife inserted in the middle should come out clean with no wet egg clinging to it.
- Rest for 10 minutes before slicing; the casserole sets up as it cools and cuts into much cleaner squares.
