Ingredients
Scale
- 4 slices of bazlama bread (or substitute with pita or flatbread)
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or a mix)
- 2 tbsp butter, melted
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley or chives for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the bazlama bread slices on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Lightly brush each slice with melted butter to enhance flavor and crispiness.
- In a bowl, beat the eggs with a pinch of salt and black pepper. Stir in half of the shredded cheese for extra creaminess.
- Carefully pour the egg and cheese mixture over each bazlama slice, ensuring even coverage. Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top, followed by oregano and red pepper flakes for a flavorful kick.
- Transfer the baking tray to the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the cheese is golden and bubbly.
- Serve your baked egg and cheese bazlama warm, garnished with fresh parsley or chives.
Notes
- Use fresh bazlama bread for the best texture.
- Experiment with different cheeses like feta or gouda for unique flavors.
- Add sautéed mushrooms or spinach for extra nutrition.
- For a spicier version, mix in chopped jalapeños.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
