Make Ahead Eggs for a Crowd
Are you the one by yourself in the kitchen making last-minute scrambled eggs for all your brunch guests? No longer! Make them ahead and pop them in the slow cooker. Thanks to a couple secret ingredients, they are so creamy and tender, I promise!
Ingredients
15 servings
Instructions
- In a blender, add eggs, milk, and all the spices (salt, pepper, garlic, onion, mustard, seasoning salt, cayenne.) Make sure you have a big blender! Mine went over the 4 cup capacity at around 20 eggs and then I was too scared to add more so I just whisked them in. You could of course just skip blending and whisk them all in a bowl. Whatever sounds easier to you!
- Melt 1/2 cup butter in a 12 inch high-sided skillet over medium heat. When it is nice and hot, pour in the egg mixture. Lower the heat to medium-low. You have to cook eggs sloooow.
- Use a spatula to occasionally scrape the bottom of the pan. Cook for 10-15 minutes until the eggs are starting to set.
- Then add the cream cheese that has been cut into chunks. Carefully fold in the cream cheese and let it melt away into your dreamy creamy eggs.
- When the eggs have cooked (cooked meaning you're ok sneaking a bite) but are still quite wet, add the eggs to a crock pot and turn the crock pot to warm. (If there is no warm setting, the low setting will do.) Put the lid on.
- Stir the eggs every hour or so. You can keep them warm in the crock pot for about 4-5 hours. If you leave them in too long eventually they will become rubbery, so it's best to eat them within 4-5 hours.
- When serving, top with cheddar cheese and green onions.
