Ingredients

Scale

Egg Mixture

  • 12 large eggs
  • 3 cups whole milk
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

Casserole Base

  • 8 English muffins, quartered
  • 8 ounces Canadian bacon or ham
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

Topping

  • 1 cup hollandaise sauce
  • Chopped chives or parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the casserole.
  2. Prepare Egg Mixture: In a large bowl, whisk together the 12 eggs, 3 cups of whole milk, 1 teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon black pepper, ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper, and 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard until fully blended.
  3. Layer Ingredients: Grease a 9×13 inch baking dish. Arrange the quartered English muffins evenly in the bottom of the dish. Layer the 8 ounces of Canadian bacon or ham pieces over the muffins. Pour the prepared egg mixture evenly over the layered ingredients. Sprinkle 2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese on top.
  4. Bake: Cover the dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Then remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the casserole is fully set and has a golden brown top.
  5. Serve: Allow the casserole to cool slightly. Drizzle 1 cup of hollandaise sauce over the top and garnish with chopped chives or parsley before serving.

Notes

  • Make sure to grease the baking dish well to prevent sticking.
  • For a lower-fat option, use reduced-fat milk and cheese.
  • The cayenne pepper adds a subtle kick but can be adjusted or omitted to suit taste preferences.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated and reheated for a quick breakfast.
  • Hollandaise sauce can be homemade or store-bought for convenience.
