Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups milk
  • 8 large eggs
  • 3 stalks green onions, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¾ pound Canadian bacon, diced
  • 6 English muffins, diced
  • ½ teaspoon ground paprika
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 0.9 oz package hollandaise sauce mix
  • ¼ cup butter

Instructions

  1. Start by greasing a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray to prevent sticking. Ensure even coverage to make serving easier later.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups of milk, 8 large eggs, chopped green onions, onion powder, and salt until fully combined. This mixture should be smooth and slightly frothy.
  3. Layer half of the diced Canadian bacon evenly across the bottom of the greased baking dish. This first layer will help distribute the savory flavor throughout the casserole.
  4. Next, evenly spread all of the diced English muffins over the bacon layer. Press them down gently to ensure they soak up the egg mixture later.
  5. Sprinkle the remaining Canadian bacon over the English muffins. This will create a flavorful top layer that will be deliciously crispy after baking.
  6. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the entire dish, making sure to coat all the ingredients well. You want to see the egg mixture filling in all the gaps between the muffins and bacon.
  7. Cover the baking dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight. This step is crucial as it allows the muffins to absorb the egg mixture, resulting in a perfect texture.
  8. The next morning, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). This temperature will ensure even cooking without burning the top.
  9. After preheating, remove the casserole from the fridge and sprinkle ½ teaspoon of paprika evenly over the top. This adds a beautiful color and a hint of warmth.
  10. Cover the casserole with foil and bake for 30 minutes. During this time, the edges should start to set, but the center will still be a bit jiggly.
  11. After 30 minutes, carefully remove the foil and bake uncovered for an additional 15 minutes. You’ll know it’s done when the top is golden brown and the center is just set, not overly firm.

Nutrition

Keywords: Let the casserole sit overnight to ensure the English muffins absorb the egg mixture properly. Use a high-quality baking dish for even heat distribution. For added flavor, let your eggs come to room temperature before mixing.
