You can easily halve this recipe and bake it in an 8×8 or 9×8 square tin, or even a pie tin to serve in wedges. Adjust baking time to 30 – 40 minutes if you make a smaller batch. You can also try blending the eggs and cottage cheese together! When baked your eggs will have a silky, custardy texture, similar to a sous-vide egg.
