Sheet Pan Eggs Ingredients

This is a discussion about the ingredients. For the actual recipe with amounts, please see the recipe below.

  • Eggs – You’ll need 18 eggs for this recipe. You can also use a 32 ounce carton of liquid eggs instead.
  • Heavy Cream – Heavy cream is great to get a rich flavor and fluffy texture in these eggs. Half and half will work, and so will regular milk. The only difference is that the texture and flavor will differ a bit.
  • Cheddar Cheese – Highly recommend using freshly grated cheddar cheese, but the pre-packaged kind will work fine too. You don’t have to stick with cheddar you can also use white cheddar, Monterey jack, Colby jack, Pepper jack, gouda, or whatever cheese fits your preference.
  • Olive Oil – This is strictly for greasing the baking sheet. Don’t be afraid to really lather this on, otherwise the eggs will stick to the pan.
  • Toppings – Ham, bacon, and green onion is what this recipe calls for, but you can add in your favorite proteins and veggies instead. Some other great options are chopped spinach, onions, tomatoes, mushrooms, cooked ground sausage, diced cooked chicken, and so much more! If you have picky eaters, feel free to leave the toppings out all together.

Storage Tips

Storage – The great thing about this recipe is that you can keep these eggs in the fridge for the whole week and have breakfast meal prepped for you. You can store them in an airtight container, or tightly sealed baggie, in the fridge for up to 4 days. You can also freeze them for up to 3 months. If you go the freezing route, I recommend wrapping or bagging each serving individually.

Reheating – To reheat, just stick the desired amount of servings in the microwave for a 30 seconds to 1 minute or until warm.

FAQs

Is it better to bake whole eggs or egg whites?

Whole eggs give you more volume and more nutrients, but you can use just egg whites for this recipe. If you choose to use egg whites then you’ll need more eggs or add in some liquid egg whites.

Can you overcook eggs in the oven?

Yes, it’s possible to burn the bottom and edges of these eggs if you leave them in the oven for too long. Make sure to rotate the pan when baking, and keep a close eye on them to check for doneness.

Serves Well With

You can serve these sheet pan eggs on a bagel or english muffin with meat and cheese for a breakfast sandwich, or pop it on top of some avocado toast. You can also serve it on the side of some pancakes, waffles or french toast for a happy, hearty breakfast. Hope you enjoy!

    I made this recipe yesterday, adding 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 cup of cooked crumbled sausage and 1 cup of fresh baby spinach. The result was amazingly fluffy and flavorful eggs. Absolutely delicious.
    I used a 12 x 18 sheet pan, and once completely cooled, I used a round biscuit cutter to cut 13 rounds, great for bagels or English muffin sandwiches. Perfect for company breakfast or a nice addition to a brunch buffet. I wrapped the leftovers individually and popped in the freezer. Thank you for this wonderful recipe.

    Can’t wait to try this. I’m vegetarian and watching my cholesterol, so I’ll do 6 eggs and 12 egg whites. I’ll be leaving out the meats and adding freshly sauteed spinach, onion, and feta cheese.

    I had to revise a bit to accommodate my small oven. Used a small jelly roll pan with a dozen eggs, not near as much HWC, just a splash or two. Used 1/2 c diced yellow onion and about half that of red bell pepper. I used Colby jack cheese just bc we love it. Sliced into 24 pieces and made them sandwiches with sausage for the center. It was delicious and perfectly done in 13 min! Great for a quick breakfast since I rarely feel up to cooking first thing in the am. Thanks so much for this recipe! (Also, I got hubby involved lol, he grated the cheese and cracked the eggs while I was dicing vegs!)
