WHY THIS BREAKFAST IS PERFECT FOR BUSY MORNINGS
One of the great things about this recipe is how simple it is. Only three ingredients are enough to create a complete and nourishing dish. No need to chop vegetables, fry ingredients in a pan or dirty several utensils.
In addition to being quick, this breakfast provides a good dose of protein thanks to the eggs and cheese. Protein contributes to a long-lasting feeling of fullness, which helps to avoid mid-morning cravings.
Cooking with the Airfryer also saves time. Unlike the traditional oven, which takes longer to heat up, the Airfryer quickly reaches the right temperature and cooks food evenly.
INGREDIENTS:
INGREDIENTS NEEDED
To make this simple and delicious recipe, you’ll need just three basic ingredients.
8 large eggs
1/2 cup milk (regular milk or unsweetened plant-based milk)
11/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, Monterey Jack or cheese blend)
These ingredients are easy to find and often already present in the kitchen.
UTENSILS TO BRING FOR THE AIRFRYER
To make this recipe in the Airfryer, it is best to use a mold that can fit in the basket of the device. A small square mold of about 20 cm or a round mold compatible with the Airfryer works perfectly.
It is also important to grease the pan well to prevent the mixture from sticking during cooking.
RECIPE
PREPARATION Start by preheating your Airfryer to 170°C for a few minutes. Meanwhile, prepare the base of the recipe.
In a large bowl, crack the eggs and add the milk. Whisk vigorously for a minute until smooth and slightly foamy. This step is important because it allows air to be incorporated into the preparation and to obtain a lighter texture after cooking.
Then add the grated cheese and mix gently to distribute it well in the preparation.
Generously grease your pan with a little butter or oil, then pour the egg and cheese mixture inside.
