Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Benedict Egg Casserole.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
While that warms up, grab a 9x13-inch baking dish and give it a light coat of cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together some milk, eggs, chopped green onions, onion powder, and a pinch of salt until everything is beautifully blended.
Step 4
Set this delightful mixture aside for now.
Step 5
Next, let’s build the layers of flavor! Begin by placing half of the Canadian bacon at the bottom of your greased baking dish.
Step 6
Then, take your split English muffins and lay them cut side up on top of the bacon.
Step 7
Add the remaining Canadian bacon over the muffins, creating a hearty base.
Step 8
Now, pour that egg mixture evenly over the entire dish, ensuring every bite will be packed with flavor.
Step 9
To let those flavors mingle and develop, cover the baking dish with plastic wrap and pop it in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours, or even better, overnight.
Step 10
This step is key for a deliciously rich casserole.
Step 11
When you’re ready to bake, remove the plastic wrap and sprinkle a dash of paprika on top for a pop of color and flavor.
Step 12
Cover the dish with aluminum foil to keep everything nice and moist.
Step 13
Bake in your preheated oven for about 30 minutes, or until the eggs are almost set.
Step 14
Then, take off the foil and let it bake for an additional 15 minutes, allowing the eggs to fully set and the top to get a lovely golden hue.
Step 15
While your casserole is baking to perfection, it’s time to whip up a creamy sauce.
Step 16
In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the remaining milk with the Hollandaise sauce mix.
Step 17
Toss in some butter and stir frequently until the mixture comes to a gentle boil.
Step 18
Once it’s bubbling, reduce the heat to medium-low and let it simmer, stirring constantly until it thickens up nicely, which should take about a minute.
Step 19
Once your casserole is out of the oven and has cooled just a bit, slice it into 10 generous pieces.
Step 20
Drizzle that warm, velvety Hollandaise sauce over each serving, and get ready to enjoy a breakfast that’s not just a meal, but a delightful experience.
Step 21
This dish is perfect for gatherings or a cozy family brunch, and it’s sure to impress everyone at the table!.
