What You'll Need To Make

Let’s Talk Ingredients

→ Feta Cheese: The star of the show! It’s salty, tangy, and turns all melty in the oven. I always go for a block of feta it’s creamier than the pre-crumbled stuff. Trust me on this one.

→ Eggs: The ultimate all-rounder. They bake up beautifully around the feta, giving you that perfect balance of soft whites and rich yolks. Plus, 12 eggs = serious protein power. 💪

→ Olive Oil: A little drizzle goes a long way. It helps everything bake up golden and delicious, while adding a nice touch of flavor.

→ Basil: Fresh basil on top takes this dish from good to wow. It adds that fresh, herby pop that brings the whole thing together.

→ Salt & Pepper: Simple but essential. A pinch of each, and you’re good to go!

The beauty of this recipe is how these basic ingredients come together to create something way more impressive than the sum of its parts. Keep it simple, and let the flavors shine! 😎

What You'll Need To Do

Time required: 30 mins

Alright, here’s how we make this ridiculously easy and tasty Feta Egg Bake:

1| Preheat that oven to 400°F (200°C). While you’re at it, grab an 8×11-inch baking dish and give it a nice olive oil massage (about 1 tablespoon will do).

2| Feta time! Plop the block of feta right in the middle of the dish. Now crack those eggs around it like little eggy bodyguards. Drizzle the whole thing with another tablespoon of olive oil. Season with a pinch of salt and a good grind of black pepper.

3| Bake it up! Pop it in the oven for 18-22 minutes. You’ll know it’s ready when the feta gets all melty and the egg whites are set.

4| Scramble and serve. Grab a fork and gently mix the feta and eggs together until you’ve got a creamy, cheesy situation. Top it with fresh basil because you’re fancy like that.

Serving suggestion: This dish is amazing on its own, but if you’ve got some warm pitas or wraps lying around, scoop it up and thank me later.

Recipe Swaps & Creative Tweaks

1| Cheese Swap: Not a fan of feta? No problem! Try goat cheese for a creamy, tangy twist or shredded mozzarella for a milder, melty vibe.

2| Add Some Veggies: Toss in a handful of spinach, diced bell peppers, or cherry tomatoes for extra color and nutrients.

3| Spice It Up: Craving some heat? Add red pepper flakes or a drizzle of hot sauce before serving. 🔥

4| Herb Alternatives: If you don’t have basil, fresh parsley, dill, or chives work just as well for a fresh, herby finish.

5| Protein Boost: Throw in some cooked bacon, sausage crumbles, or diced ham for a heartier dish.

6| Make It Dairy-Free: Swap the feta for a plant-based cheese alternative and drizzle with extra olive oil for that rich, creamy touch.

With a few simple tweaks, you can make this recipe your own perfect for whatever ingredients you have on hand! 😊

Helpful Tips for Success

Useful Tips for Making the Perfect Feta Egg Bake

1| Use a Block of Feta: Blocks are creamier and melt better than pre-crumbled feta. Trust me, it’s worth it!

2| Don’t Overbake: Keep an eye on it! You want the egg whites set but the yolks still a little soft for the best texture.

3| Season Carefully: Feta is naturally salty, so go easy on the salt. You can always add more later!

4| Let It Rest: Once it’s out of the oven, give it a couple of minutes to cool. The flavors settle, and it’s easier to mix everything together.

5| Grease Well: Make sure to oil your baking dish generously to avoid sticking and make cleanup a breeze.

6| Fresh Herbs Are Key: Fresh basil (or any herb) gives the dish that extra burst of flavor. Dried herbs just won’t have the same magic here.

4| Breakfast for Dinner: Add crispy bacon or sausage on the side and call it dinner no one will complain!

5| Topped with Extras: Sprinkle on some chili flakes, drizzle with hot honey, or add a dollop of yogurt for extra flavor.

6| Make It a Wrap: Stuff it into a tortilla with fresh veggies for a quick and tasty breakfast wrap.

Storage Options

Fridge: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Just reheat in the microwave or oven until warmed through. Easy peasy!

Freezer: Want to meal prep for later? Cut the bake into individual portions, wrap them tightly, and freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.

Reheating Tip: For the best texture, reheat it in the oven at 350°F for about 10–15 minutes. If you’re in a rush, the microwave works too just don’t overdo it, or the eggs might get rubbery.

This dish stores well, so it’s perfect for prepping ahead or saving those leftovers for another day! 😊
