Tips for Making Baked Scrambled Eggs

Use the Right Dish: A glass or ceramic baking dish works well. Ensure it’s large enough to allow the eggs to spread out and cook evenly.

Grease the Dish: Lightly butter or oil the baking dish to prevent sticking.

Whisk the Eggs Thoroughly: Beat the eggs well to incorporate air, making the scrambled eggs fluffy.

Remove and Let Set: Take the dish out of the oven and let the eggs sit for a few minutes. They will continue to cook slightly from the residual heat.

What Can I add to to this oven baked Scrambled Eggs Recipe?

When you are making oven baked scrambled eggs you can add lots of things to them before cooking them to fancy them up if you want to. Add any extras to the scrambled eggs after you have mixed them up and poured them into the baking dish.

• Add meat. Adding cooked bacon, sausage or ham chunks is a great way to change things up. If you have meat lovers, add multiple types of meat to the eggs.
• Add cheese. Cheddar cheese, Monterey jack cheese, Feta, Swiss, and parmesan are great options for cheese in scrambled eggs. It is best to add the cheese halfway thru the cooking.
• Add Vegetables. Incorporating vegetables into baked scrambled eggs not only adds flavor and texture but also boosts the nutritional value. Bell pepper, mushrooms, zucchini, onions, spinach, tomatoes, and asparagus are all great options for vegetables in scrambled eggs.
