    Expert Tips

    • Use a non-stick baking dish. This will make it easier to remove the egg bake from the dish and prevent sticking.
    • Don't overcook the egg bake. Be careful not to overcook the egg bake, as it can become dry and rubbery. Check the egg bake periodically and remove it from the oven once the center is set and the edges are lightly browned.
    • Let it cool before slicing. To make sure that the egg bake holds its shape and doesn't fall apart when you slice it, allow it to cool for a few minutes before cutting into it.
