Ingredients
- English Muffins
- Fresh large eggs
- Whole or 2% milk
- Sharp cheddar cheese
- Canadian Bacon or beef bacon
- Hollandaise Sauce
- Chopped chives or parsley
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Cut the English muffins into quarters and place them in a greased 9×13-inch baking dish, spreading them out evenly.
- In a skillet over medium heat, cook your beef bacon until crispy. Chop it into bite-sized pieces and sprinkle it over the English muffins.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined. If adding cheese, mix it in at this stage.
- Carefully pour the egg mixture over the English muffins and bacon, ensuring everything is evenly coated.
- Allow the casserole to sit for about 15-20 minutes to absorb the egg mixture.
- Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the eggs are set.
- While the casserole bakes, prepare the hollandaise sauce. Melt butter in a saucepan, whisk in egg yolks and lemon juice until thickened. Remove from heat and stir in a bit of water if it’s too thick.
- Once the casserole is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Drizzle the hollandaise sauce over the top, sprinkle with fresh herbs, and serve warm.
