3-Ingredient Breakfast Soufflé Bake
A light, fluffy, golden-topped breakfast that rises beautifully in the oven and tastes like a cross between a soufflé, pancake, and omelet.
Perfect for busy mornings — mix, bake, enjoy!
Ingredients (3 Only!)
✔️ 6 large eggs
✔️ 1 cup milk (any: whole, skim, almond, oat)
✔️ ½ cup flour (all-purpose; can use gluten-free blend)
Optional but delicious: pinch of salt, 1 tsp vanilla, 1 tbsp sugar, butter for greasing.
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 190°C / 375°F.
-
Grease a glass or ceramic baking dish.
-
Blend or whisk eggs + milk + flour until smooth (no lumps).
-
Pour mixture into the dish.
-
Bake 35–45 minutes until puffed and deeply golden on top.
-
Serve immediately — it deflates slightly as it cools (totally normal!).
Description
This soufflé-style bake rises dramatically in the oven, creating a pillowy, airy top and a soft, custard-like base.
It can be eaten sweet (with fruit, honey, jam) or savory (with cheese, herbs, or ham).
Notes
-
The rise comes from the eggs — no baking powder needed.
-
Use a glass dish for best puff and browning.
-
Batter should be smooth; blending gives extra fluffiness.
-
Add sugar for sweet version; salt for savory version.

Q & A
Q: Can I make it dairy-free?
A: Yes! Use almond, oat, or soy milk — it still puffs.
Q: Can I add cheese?
A: Absolutely. Sprinkle shredded cheese on top before baking.
Q: Why did mine not rise as much?
A: Over-mixing, a cold oven, or opening the door early can prevent a big rise.
Q: Can this be stored?
A: Yes. Refrigerate up to 3 days, reheat in oven or air fryer.
Q: Gluten-free?
A: Swap flour for a GF blend or even ½ cup cornstarch.
