Beat the eggs:  In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs to blend, and then mix in the cream, salt, pepper, and nutmeg.
Add some more ingredients: Next, mix in half the mushrooms, bell pepper and green onions, and half the cheese.
Transfer the mixture to a baking sheet: Pour eggs into a greased 12×18-inch rimmed large sheet pan and evenly sprinkle the rest of the vegetables and cheese on top.
Bake the eggs until set: Cook eggs in a preheated oven until the middle doesn’t jiggle any more, then cut into squares and serve.

Substitutions and Variations

Different vegetables: One of the best things about this sheet pan omelet dish is you can vary the fillings and toppings, just like with many other egg recipes, so sub different veggies if you like.
Use another cheese: Sharp cheddar isn’t everyone’s favorite but you can use any kind of shredded cheese or even mix and match whatever you like such as half feta cheese and half colby jack.
Seasonings: Salt, pepper and nutmeg are good seasonings but you can use anything you like, such as onion and garlic powder, smoked paprika, dried oregano or fresh basil.
Make it meaty: Add some cooked bacon or ham in addition to the veggies if you like.

Serving Suggestions

Side dishes: Although it can be enjoyed without any side dishes, you might like to enjoy this recipe for brunch. It pairs well with dishes like rainbow unicorn toast, buttermilk pancakes or any of these breakfast favorites.
Drinks: You might want to pair it with your favorite morning beverage, whether that’s a pumpkin spice latte or a breakfast smoothie.

How to Store Sheet Pan Baked Eggs

Store:  Keep leftover baked eggs in an airtight container in the refrigerator and use within 4 days.
Freeze:  Another option is freezing your leftovers for up to 3 months.
Thaw:  Thaw in the fridge overnight or cook from frozen.
Reheat:  Reheat the baked eggs in an air fryer or microwave. This will take longer if cooking from frozen.

Top Tips

Don’t let it stick: When greasing a sheet pan for your baked scrambled eggs, it’s important to make sure you grease up the sides too. This prevents the sheet pan eggs from sticking.
Make two kinds: If you want to make one vegetable sheet pan egg dish and one with, say, cubed ham, bacon or chicken, you can either use two small baking sheets or use foil to separate a large baking sheet into two halves.
Check you’re using good eggs: When making sheet pan meals using eggs, it’s a good idea to crack each egg into a cup and then into the bowl. It’s easier to spot and pick out any stray bits of egg shell and it also means if you crack a bad egg, you aren’t breaking it into the bowl with all the others.
