This Fluffy Sheet Pan Eggs recipe creates a light, airy, and cheesy baked egg dish perfect for breakfast or brunch. Blended eggs with Gruyere and cottage cheese are baked gently in a water bath on a sheet pan for even cooking and a wonderfully fluffy texture.

Ingredients

Egg Mixture

  • 5 eggs
  • ½ cup shredded Gruyere cheese
  • ¼ cup full fat cottage cheese
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • pinch of black pepper

For Baking

  • Cooking spray
  • Parchment paper
  • 1 inch water (for water bath)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 300ºF and place a baking dish with 1 inch of water on the bottom rack to create a water bath for gentle, even baking.
  2. Blend Ingredients: Add eggs, shredded Gruyere cheese, full fat cottage cheese, kosher salt, and black pepper to a blender. Blend on high for 20 seconds until the mixture is light and frothy.
  3. Prepare Sheet Pan: Grease a 9×13 inch rimmed sheet pan with cooking spray, line it with parchment paper, and spray the parchment paper again with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  4. Pour and Bake: Pour the blended egg mixture into the prepared sheet pan. Place it in the oven and bake for 35 minutes, or until the center of the eggs is just set and no longer jiggly.
  5. Cool and Serve: Remove the sheet pan from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes. Slice into portions and serve warm.

Notes

  • Make sure to blend the eggs thoroughly to incorporate air for fluffiness.
  • The water bath helps cook the eggs evenly and prevents overbaking.
  • You can substitute Gruyere cheese with cheddar or mozzarella if desired.
  • Cover the sheet pan loosely with foil if you want a softer top.
  • Use full fat cottage cheese for creaminess; low fat versions may alter texture.
