Let’s Make it Together

Preheat Your Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures your sheet pan eggs cook evenly and come out fluffy.

Prepare Your Sheet Pan: Grease a large baking sheet with nonstick spray or olive oil. You don’t want those beautiful eggs sticking around!

Whisk It Up!: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined. Make sure there are no eggy lumps—smooth is key here!

Add Flavorful Friends: Stir in shredded cheese, diced bacon or sausage, chopped bell peppers, salt, and pepper. Let the combination of flavors dance together for a minute.

Pour Into The Pan: Carefully pour the egg mixture onto your prepared sheet pan. Spread it out evenly so everything cooks nicely—no egg left behind!

Bake Until Perfectly Fluffy: Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes or until the center is set and slightly puffed. You’ll know it’s done when it looks golden and smells heavenly!

Perfecting the Cooking Process

Start by preheating your oven to 350°F. Whisk eggs with salt and pepper, pour into a greased sheet pan, and bake for 15-20 minutes until set. This method ensures even cooking and saves you from flipping individual eggs.

Add Your Touch

Feel free to mix in chopped vegetables, cheese, or cooked meats to personalize your sheet pan eggs. Adding some diced bell peppers or crumbled feta transforms each bite into a flavor explosion that’s hard to resist.

Storing & Reheating

Once cooled, store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to four days. To reheat, pop them in the microwave for about 30 seconds or warm them in a skillet over low heat for that fresh-out-of-the-oven taste.
