Description
Indulge in the creamy, cheesy goodness of Baked Gouda Cheese Grits – a comforting and flavorful dish that’s ready in just 30 minutes.
Ingredients
– 2 cups stone-ground grits
– 4 cups milk
– 1 cup shredded gouda cheese
– 1/2 cup unsalted butter
– 2 large eggs, beaten
– 1 teaspoon salt
– 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In a large saucepan, bring the milk to a simmer over medium heat. Slowly whisk in the grits and cook, stirring constantly, until the grits are thick and creamy, about 15-20 minutes.
3. Remove the grits from the heat and stir in the shredded gouda cheese, butter, beaten eggs, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
4. Transfer the cheesy grits mixture to a greased 9×13-inch baking dish.
5. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly.
6. Serve hot, garnished with additional chopped chives or green onions, if desired.
Notes
For a creamier texture, use a combination of cheddar and gouda cheese. You can also add diced ham, crumbled bacon, or sautéed mushrooms for extra flavor.
