Time 1h40m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 9

¾ cup milk
1 egg
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 dash hot pepper sauce
4 cups water
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup quick-cooking grits
¼ cup butter
12 ounces shredded sharp Cheddar cheese, divided

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 2-quart baking dish.
  • Beat milk, egg, garlic powder, and hot pepper sauce in a bowl.
  • Bring water and salt to a boil in a saucepan; cook and stir grits in boiling water until thickened, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat; add butter and about 1/2 of the Cheddar cheese. Stir egg mixture into grits and pour grits into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle remaining Cheddar cheese over grits.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted and grits are set, about 1 hour. Allow grits to cool 20 to 30 minutes before serving. Grits should be cornbread-like.

I'm allergic to garlic, so I'll have to leave that out. But the cheese grits still sound amazing.

I'm not sure about the combination of garlic and cheese in grits. I'll have to see for myself.

Not a fan of these grits. The texture was too mushy for me.

The cheese grits were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some chopped jalapenos next time.

I've tried many grits recipes, but this one is by far the best. The addition of cheese and garlic takes them to a whole new level.

These grits were a hit at my breakfast table! The cheese and garlic flavors were perfectly balanced, and the grits were creamy and smooth.
