Ingredients
- 6 large Eggs
- 1 cup Milk
- 0.25 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.75 teaspoon Salt
- 2 cups Sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- 0.5 cup Green chilies, diced
- 2 tablespoons Butter, melted
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish, optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x9-inch baking dish with nonstick spray or butter.
Step 2
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until fully combined and slightly frothy.
Step 3
In a separate small bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually whisk these dry ingredients into the egg mixture until smooth and lump-free.
Step 4
Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese, diced green chilies, melted butter, and black pepper. Mix until evenly combined.
Step 5
Pour the egg mixture into the prepared baking dish, smoothing out the top with a spatula.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is set. To check, insert a knife or toothpick into the center—it should come out clean.
Step 7
Remove the dish from the oven and allow it to cool for 5 minutes before slicing into squares or wedges.
Step 8
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve warm. Enjoy your fluffy and spicy Chili Egg Puff!
