How to Make Speckled Egg Bake

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease a 13x9 inch or 11x9 inch baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. Brown 1 pound of breakfast sausage in a skillet over medium heat, breaking it up with a spoon. Drain off any excess grease and set aside.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  4. Melt 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter in a small saucepan or microwave.
  5. In a large bowl, whisk 6 large eggs until light and frothy.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients (flour mixture) to the eggs, whisking until smooth.
  7. Stir in the melted butter, 1 1/2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese, 1 cup cottage cheese, 4 ounces canned green chiles (drained), and the cooked sausage.
  8. Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish.
  9. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean and the top is lightly golden brown.
