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.

These grits were a little too salty for my taste, but other than that they were very good.

I added some chopped green bell pepper and onion to the grits and they were delicious! This is a very versatile recipe.

OMG! This recipe was so easy to follow and the grits turned out creamy and cheesy. I added some crumbled bacon on top and it was heavenly!
