A delightful twist on the classic baked grits, this recipe incorporates rich flavors and a creamy texture, perfect for any meal.
Combine the water, milk, salt, and grits in a saucepan.
Stir constantly to prevent the grits from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat.
Keep an eye on the pot to avoid boiling over.
Reduce the heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until thickened, about 5 minutes.
Use a whisk to break up any lumps that may form.
Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Beat the eggs in a separate bowl.
Cooling the grits prevents the eggs from cooking prematurely when mixed.
Slowly add a small amount of the grits to the eggs, whisking constantly, then combine back into the saucepan.
This step ensures the eggs incorporate smoothly without scrambling.
Stir in the shredded cheese until melted and well combined.
Mix thoroughly to distribute the cheese evenly.
Pour the mixture into a buttered casserole dish and dot the top with butter.
Use a spatula to spread the mixture evenly in the dish.
Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F for 40 minutes or until golden brown.
Check for doneness by inserting a knife into the center; it should come out clean.
Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your cheesy baked grits casserole!
Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley for a pop of color and flavor.
