Ingredients
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 slices of bread (any variety)
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or a blend) – optional

- Cooked bacon or sausage for added protein – optional
Instructions
- Prepare the egg mixture by whisking together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper in a large bowl.
- Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat.
- Assemble the bake by cutting the bread into cubes and adding them to the skillet, pouring the egg mixture over the top.
- Cook the mixture undisturbed for about 5-7 minutes, or until the edges begin to set.
- Add any toppings you’ve chosen, and allow it to cook for another 5 minutes until the eggs are fully set and the cheese is melted.
- Serve hot with additional toppings or condiments on the side.
Notes
For a heartier dish, consider adding cooked meats like diced ham or bacon. Use stale bread for better absorption of the egg mixture.
