The 3-Ingredient Baked Breakfast: Simple, Fluffy, and Surprisingly Luxurious


 

How to Make This Baked Breakfast

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a small baking dish (about 8×8 inches).


Step 2: Blend the Ingredients

In a bowl or blender, combine the eggs, softened cream cheese, and milk. Blend or whisk until completely smooth with no lumps. The smoother the mixture, the fluffier the final result.


Step 3: Pour and Bake

Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Place it on the center rack of the oven and bake for 30–35 minutes, until puffed, lightly golden on top, and just set in the middle.


Step 4: Cool Slightly and Serve

Remove from the oven and allow it to rest for a few minutes. It will deflate slightly—this is normal. Slice and serve warm.


Texture and Flavor Notes

  • Light and airy, similar to a savory custard

  • Mild, creamy flavor that pairs well with both sweet and savory sides

  • Soft enough to melt in your mouth, but sturdy enough to slice


Easy Serving Ideas

Even though the base uses only three ingredients, you can dress it up effortlessly:

  • Serve with toast, fruit, or avocado

  • Add smoked salmon or ham on the side

  • Top with herbs, cracked pepper, or a drizzle of honey

  • Pair with roasted vegetables for a complete meal


Tips for Best Results

  • Use room-temperature cream cheese for a smoother batter

  • Don’t overbake—gentle heat keeps it tender

  • A glass or ceramic baking dish works best
