Highland Eggs

Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups fresh bread cubes, I use sourdough
1 cup grated cheese ,I prefer an extra sharp cheddar
8 slices bacon, cooked and drained, broken into pieces
8 eggs
Pepper
3/4 cup of half and half (Some recipes call for up to 1 1/2 cups heavy cream which is a little excessive)
Salt
Butter, I always use unsalted butter when I cook

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degree's
Butter a pie pan, the sides and the bottom, I use a stone pie pan, but a glass one works well.
Sprinkle 1/2 of the bread cubes in the pie pan, top with 1/2 of the cheese, and half of the bacon. Then take your 8 eggs and crack them over the ingredients spacing evenly. Top with the remaining, bread, cheese, and bacon. Season with a little pepper, preferably fresh.
Take the cream and pour it over all the ingredients until it is absorbed.
Bake in the pre-heated oven 20-30 minutes depending on how you like your eggs .Season with a little salt and serve. Even better the day after.

I like to add green chili to mine for a southwest flair.

Using a grater, shred them into a bowl.

Assembly the dish in 5 layers

Now this thread is awesome, but it is also giving me crazy food cravings and at this point in my pregnancy, I'm too tired to stay in the kitchen making this stuff. We'll see how my husband likes these recipes when I decide I want Highland Eggs or Tattie Scones at 3 in the morning!
