3. Whisk eggs, heavy cream, salt, and pepper until glossy, tiny bubbles mean air and a softer set.
4. Pour the mixture slowly over the base, tilt the dish so the custard reaches every corner, tap once to release trapped air.
5. Blanket the top with cheddar, place on the center rack, bake until the edges turn golden and the middle has a gentle jiggle.
6. Pull from the oven and breathe in the bacon and cheddar aroma, let the surface settle while the center finishes softly.
7. Slice with a clean knife, lift each square with care, serve warm and watch cravings quiet.
⚠️ DO NOT SKIP: Rest for five minutes before cutting. This is where the cheese settles, the steam calms, and comfort takes hold.

🔑 Pro Tips
- Whisk eggs with cream until glossy, not foamy, for a soft custard set.
- Shred cheddar fresh for a smoother melt and a richer golden top.
- Let it rest five to ten minutes before slicing, clean edges and a calm, creamy center.
🚫 Common Mistakes
- Overbaking until the center is firm. Pull when it still has a gentle jiggle.
- Using pre shredded cheese. It can resist melting and dull the finish.
- Salting heavily before tasting. Bacon and cheddar already carry salt.
🧬 Quick Science Facts
- Protein and fat slow gastric emptying, a natural path to craving control and steady energy.
- Eggs provide choline that supports brain function and calm focus while keeping carbs low.
- Dairy fats in cheddar and cream enhance satiety signals, helpful for blood sugar balance.
FAQ + Craving Support
Why do I still get sugar cravings after eating this?
Cravings can echo old habits. This casserole steadies you, but hidden sugar from coffee add ins or late night snacks can keep the loop alive. You are not broken. You are rewiring. For a faster calm, use the Craving Reset Protocol.
Can I make this without dairy or with turkey bacon?
Yes. Swap cheddar for a dairy free melt, add a spoon of olive oil or MCT for fat balance, and use turkey bacon if you prefer. Aim for the same protein and fat so hunger stays quiet. For clean fat choices, see the Fat and Oil Guide.
Will this actually hold me until lunch?
