A simple, creamy casserole that combines all the flavors of traditional Eggs Benedict into a make-ahead, crowd-pleasing brunch dish.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large English muffins, split and lightly toasted
  • 8 oz Canadian bacon or ham, diced or sliced
  • 8 large eggs, beaten
  • 1 cup whole milk or 2%
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Finely chopped parsley or chives for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch casserole dish lightly with butter or nonstick spray.
  2. Toast and prep the English muffins: split into halves, toast lightly until golden, then tear or cut into bite-sized pieces and spread evenly across the bottom of the casserole dish.
  3. Scatter the diced or sliced Canadian bacon evenly over the English muffin pieces.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs until smooth. Add milk, sour cream, melted butter, shredded cheddar cheese, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Whisk until fully combined and creamy.
  5. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the layered English muffins and bacon. Use a spatula to gently press the bread down so it soaks up the liquid.
  6. Let the casserole rest for about 5 minutes to allow the bread to absorb the mixture.
  7. Bake uncovered for 35-40 minutes until the top is golden, puffed, and eggs are set but still creamy when poked with a fork. Tent with foil if browning too fast.
  8. Let the casserole cool slightly for 5-7 minutes before slicing.
  9. Garnish with chopped parsley or chives and serve warm.

Notes

Toast the English muffins to prevent sogginess and help them hold their shape. Let the casserole rest before baking to allow the bread to soak up the egg mixture. Avoid overbaking to keep the casserole creamy and custardy. You can assemble the casserole the night before and bake fresh in the morning, adding a few extra minutes to the bake time.
