Description

This Deliciously Easy Eggs Benedict Casserole is a perfect brunch dish combining classic eggs benedict flavors in a convenient, make-ahead bake. Featuring English muffins, Canadian bacon, and a rich homemade hollandaise sauce, it delivers the indulgence of eggs benedict with the ease of a casserole.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 6 English muffins, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 cups cooked Canadian bacon or ham, diced
  • 8 large eggs
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

Hollandaise Sauce

  • 3 large egg yolks
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

Garnish

  • Chopped fresh parsley (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Baking Dish: Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish and evenly spread the English muffin cubes across the bottom to create the base layer for your casserole.
  2. Add Canadian Bacon: Sprinkle the diced Canadian bacon evenly over the muffin cubes to distribute the savory meat flavor throughout the dish.
  3. Mix Egg Mixture: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, whole milk, salt, black pepper, paprika, and Dijon mustard until smooth and well combined.
  4. Combine and Refrigerate: Pour the egg mixture evenly over the muffin and bacon layers. Cover the dish tightly and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results, allowing the flavors to meld and the muffins to soak up the custard.
  5. Preheat Oven and Bake: When ready to cook, preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the casserole uncovered for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is lightly golden brown.
  6. Prepare Hollandaise Sauce: While the casserole bakes, whisk the egg yolks, lemon juice, and water in a heatproof bowl placed over gently simmering water. Slowly drizzle in the melted butter while whisking constantly until the sauce thickens and becomes creamy. Remove from heat.
  7. Serve: Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes after baking. Drizzle with the prepared hollandaise sauce, garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired, and serve warm.

Notes

  • This casserole can be assembled the night before to simplify your morning and impress guests at brunch.
  • If short on time, using store-bought hollandaise sauce is a convenient alternative without sacrificing flavor.
