Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1 pound Canadian bacon, diced
  • 6 English muffins, split and cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 8 large eggs
  • 2 cups whole milk

Seasonings

  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika

Garnish & Sauce

  • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 cup hollandaise sauce

Instructions

  1. Prepare Baking Dish: Coat a 9×13-inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray and set aside to prevent sticking during baking.
  2. Layer Canadian Bacon and Muffins: Evenly distribute half of the diced Canadian bacon in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Scatter half of the English muffin pieces over the bacon. Repeat this layering with the remaining bacon and muffin pieces for an even structure.
  3. Mix Egg Mixture: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, whole milk, onion powder, salt, garlic powder, and black pepper until fully combined to create a flavorful custard base.
  4. Combine Layers: Pour the egg mixture evenly over the layered Canadian bacon and English muffins in the baking dish, ensuring all pieces are soaked well.
  5. Chill: Cover the dish tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best texture and flavor melding.
  6. Preheat Oven: Remove the casserole from the refrigerator and preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  7. Bake Casserole: Remove the plastic wrap, sprinkle the paprika evenly over the top, and bake uncovered for 35 to 40 minutes until the eggs are completely set and the top turns golden brown.
  8. Prepare Sauce: Warm the hollandaise sauce according to package instructions or prepare homemade sauce, ensuring it is warm and smooth.
  9. Serve: Let the casserole cool briefly after baking, then drizzle the warm hollandaise sauce on top and garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.

Notes

  • For best flavor and texture, allow the casserole to soak overnight.
  • Ensure the eggs are fully set before removing from the oven to avoid runny custard.
  • Homemade hollandaise sauce adds a fresh touch but store-bought is a convenient alternative.
  • This casserole can be made a day in advance and reheated gently before serving.
  • Substitute whole milk with a milk alternative if desired, but it may change texture slightly.
