❓ FAQs

Q: Can I make these dairy-free?
A: This recipe relies heavily on cheese for structure and flavor, so a dairy-free version won’t work the same.

Q: Do they taste eggy?
A: Using enough cheese balances out the eggs. Mozzarella gives a milder flavor if you’re sensitive to egg taste.

Q: Can I make them crispier?
A: Yes! Bake a few minutes longer or toast before serving.
