How to Make Grits Bread

In a medium saucepan, bring 4 cups of milk to a boil. Slowly whisk in 1 cup of coarse ground grits, stirring constantly to prevent lumps.
Reduce heat to low and continue stirring until the grits are thick and creamy, about 15-20 minutes.
Remove from heat and stir in 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) of unsalted butter or margarine until melted.
Stir in 1 teaspoon of salt and 2 large eggs that have been beaten until light and frothy.
Pour the grits mixture into a well-greased 9-inch oven-safe dish.
Bake in a preheated 400°F (200°C) oven for 30-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the bread is set and slightly puffed.
Let cool slightly before cutting into wedges and serving. Enjoy!
