Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) . Lightly grease a baking dish or ramekins with cooking spray or butter.
Step 2: Mix the Ingredients
In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs until smooth and slightly frothy.
Stir in the cottage cheese, Parmesan cheese (if using), salt, pepper, garlic powder, and fresh herbs. Mix until well combined.
If adding vegetables, meat, or extra cheese, fold them into the mixture at this stage.
Step 3: Bake
Pour the egg mixture into the prepared baking dish or divide it evenly among greased ramekins for individual portions.
Bake for 25–30 minutes , or until the eggs are set and the top is lightly golden. To check doneness, insert a knife into the center—it should come out clean.
Step 4: Serve
Let the baked eggs cool for 5 minutes before slicing or serving. Garnish with additional fresh herbs, a sprinkle of Parmesan, or a dollop of sour cream if desired.
