Baked Cheese Grits

How to make Baked Cheese Grits Recipe

Ingredients:
1 cup Hominy grits, quick-cooking
3 cups Milk
1 teaspoon Salt
2 Eggs, lightly beaten
1 cup Water, hot
6 Garlic cloves, chopped
6 tablespoons Butter
1 cup Cheddar cheese, grated
to taste Salt and white pepper

Method:
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Stir the grits into the milk and add the salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring often, so the mixture does not scorch, for 5 to 7 minutes or until thickened.

Remove from the heat and add the eggs. Then add the water, stirring vigorously.

Separately, sauté the garlic in the butter, then add to grits. Return the mixture to the heat and cook until thickened again.

Add the cheese and mix well. Season with salt and pepper.

Place in a baking pan and bake for 30 minutes.

Let rest 10 minutes before serving.
