- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and dry mustard in a large bowl until well combined.

Notes
For best texture, cook the bacon ahead and chop it finely. You can also prepare some ingredients the night before to save time in the morning. Serve with hot sauce or ketchup if desired.
