Mushroom and Gruyere Egg Bake

Ingredients

• 4 eggs
• 100g mushrooms, sliced
• 40g gruyere cheese
• 1 tbsp butter
• Fresh thyme
• Salt and pepper

Preparation

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).

2. 2

   Heat an oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tbsp butter and let it melt completely. Add the sliced mushrooms and fresh thyme, then sauté until the mushrooms are golden brown and most of their moisture has evaporated. Season lightly with salt and pepper.

3. 3

   In a bowl, whisk the eggs with salt and pepper until well combined and slightly frothy for a lighter texture.

4. 4

   Pour the beaten eggs evenly over the sautéed mushrooms in the skillet or transfer everything into a lightly greased oven-safe baking dish.

5. 5

   Sprinkle the grated gruyere evenly over the top.

6. 6

   Bake for 18–20 minutes until the eggs are fully set, puffed slightly, and the top is lightly golden.

7. 7

   Let rest for 2–3 minutes before serving to allow the bake to settle and make slicing easier.
