Ingredients
- 1 baguette
- 3 eggs
- 2 tablespoons whole milk
- 1 ¼ cups shredded fontina cheese
- ⅓ cup chopped spinach
- 2 strips cooked bacon, crumbled
- 2 tablespoons diced sun-dried tomatoes
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Make a V-shaped cut in the baguette, leaving ends intact. Lift out V-shaped wedge. Hollow out baguette gently to make a long, skinny bread bowl, being careful not to cut through the bottom or sides. Place baguette on the prepared baking sheet.
- Whisk eggs in a bowl. Add milk; whisk until well blended. Stir in fontina cheese, spinach, bacon, sun-dried tomatoes, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Pour mixture slowly into the prepared baguette, spreading evenly with a spoon.
- Bake in the preheated oven until egg mixture is completely set and cheese is lightly browned, about 30 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes; cut into 1 1/2-inch slices.
- If using frozen spinach, thaw before using.

no made it as it was….fantastic
This is a cool brunch recipe. I used gluten free rolls. Had to change some of the ingredients to what I had on hand and added a generous double squirt of Sriracha to the egg mixture. Thank you for the recipe!
