Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 8 large eggs
  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional)
  • Fresh herbs for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking the egg mixture.
  2. Prepare the egg mixture: In a large mixing bowl, crack all 8 eggs, then add the cottage cheese along with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika if using. Whisk together until fully combined and slightly frothy.
  3. Pour onto sheet pan: Lightly grease a rimmed sheet pan to prevent sticking. Pour the egg and cottage cheese mixture evenly onto the pan, spreading it out to create an even layer.
  4. Bake: Place the sheet pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until the eggs are set in the center and lightly golden on top.
  5. Cool and serve: Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes. Cut into squares or slices, garnish with fresh herbs if desired, and serve warm.
