Ingredients
- 4 stale bagels, cut into 1-inch cubes (about 6 cups)
- 4 large eggs
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 3 green onions, sliced
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
- Spread bagel cubes on a baking sheet and toast for 10 minutes, until lightly crisp. Transfer to a large bowl.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, cream, mustard, salt, pepper, and nutmeg.
- Pour egg mixture over bagel cubes and stir gently to coat. Let sit for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, so bagels absorb the liquid.
- Fold in 1 1/2 cups cheddar cheese, all Parmesan, and green onions. Transfer to prepared baking dish and press down evenly.
- Sprinkle remaining 1/2 cup cheddar on top. Bake for 35-40 minutes, until set and golden brown. Let cool 5 minutes before serving.
Tips
- For extra flavor, add cooked bacon or ham.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated and reheated in the oven or microwave.
- Serve with a side salad for a complete meal.
