Eggs Benedict Casserole is a delightful twist on the classic brunch favorite, combining toasted English muffins, savory Canadian bacon, fluffy baked eggs, creamy hollandaise sauce, and fresh herbs. This easy, make-ahead casserole is perfect for gatherings or a comforting weekend breakfast.

Ingredients

Scale

Base

  • 68 English muffins, toasted and halved
  • 8 ounces Canadian bacon or thinly sliced ham

Egg Mixture

  • 8 large eggs
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • Salt to taste (about 1 teaspoon)
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste (about 1/2 teaspoon)

Topping

  • 1 cup hollandaise sauce (homemade or store-bought)
  • Fresh herbs (chives or parsley), chopped, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat and prepare the baking dish: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray to prevent sticking and promote even baking.
  2. Layer the base: Arrange half of the toasted English muffin halves evenly across the bottom of the baking dish. Top with all of the Canadian bacon or thinly sliced ham, distributing it evenly for balanced flavor.
  3. Mix and pour the egg mixture: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, whole milk, salt, and freshly ground black pepper until the mixture is smooth and uniform. Pour this over the layered muffins and Canadian bacon to ensure all pieces soak in the custard.
  4. Add hollandaise and bake: Drizzle the hollandaise sauce evenly over the top of the egg mixture. Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 30 to 40 minutes, or until the eggs are fully set and the top is lightly golden.
  5. Rest and serve: Remove the casserole from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes to firm up for easier slicing. Garnish with chopped fresh herbs like chives or parsley before serving warm.

Notes

  • You can prepare the casserole a day ahead; cover and refrigerate, then bake when ready.
  • Use gluten-free English muffins to make this dish gluten-free.
  • For a richer flavor, consider making homemade hollandaise sauce.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat slices gently in the oven or microwave for best texture retention.
