English muffins and back bacon are turned into a strata-style casserole. Prep the night before, bake in the morning and drizzle with hollandaise sauce (homemade or packaged). If you want to switch up your usual breakfast casserole, you’ll love this version!
A Fave Egg Brunch Casserole
Instead of individual servings of Eggs Benedict, this casserole version takes all the same flavors and serves it up casserole style. It’s perfect for holidays like Christmas morning! Prep and refrigerate or overnight. In the morning, bake and drizzle with hollandaise (and add extra poached eggs if you’d like). So easy!
All of the prep is done the day beforeIt bakes while I spend time with family or enjoying the holiday/There is only one pan to wash after breakfast (since all of the prep is done ahead of time).I love strata-style casseroles, and this one is no exception!
Ingredients in an Eggs Benedict Casserole
English Muffins – The base of this casserole is English muffins as it is the base of a traditional eggs benny! Back Bacon – Canadian bacon (aka back bacon). Back bacon differs from ham as it comes from a different area of the animal. If you have leftover holiday ham, you can use that in place of Canadian bacon. Egg Mixture – Just like most overnight casseroles, this recipe uses a seasoned mixture of eggs and milk. Stir in some seasonings, extra garlic powder, and even a pinch of cayenne pepper or Dijon mustard if you’d like!
Hollandaise Sauce Made Easy!
Eggs Benedict wouldn’t be complete without Hollandaise sauce! This sauce seems intimidating but making a blender hollandaise sauce is so easy, as fast as a packet with better flavor! It’s a mixture of egg yolks, vinegar, or lemon juice, combined with melted butter! If you’d prefer, a packaged hollandaise mix works well, too (I promise the blender version is just as easy).
How to Make Eggs Benedict Casserole
This is an overnight eggs benedict casserole. Prepare and cover with plastic wrap before refrigerating overnight; this ensures the English muffins soak up all of the egg mixture. While the casserole is baking, prepare Hollandaise sauce. Serve baked casserole with Hollandaise sauce, & garnish with green onions or fresh chives, if desired.
How to Make Ahead
This casserole is perfect for making ahead! The baked English muffin cubes soak up the savory egg batter while it chills in the refrigerator, freeing up your time and energy for other prep—or maybe just sleeping in?
