Description
Overnight Eggs Benedict Casserole is an easy make ahead breakfast casserole with English muffins, Canadian bacon, eggs, and creamy hollandaise flavor, perfect for brunch, holiday mornings, and overnight guests.
Ingredients
6 English muffins, cut into bite-sized pieces
12 ounces Canadian bacon, chopped
8 large eggs
2 cups whole milk
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, for greasing the dish
1 packet hollandaise sauce mix or 1 cup prepared hollandaise sauce
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley or chives
Instructions
1. Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with the butter.
2. Spread half of the English muffin pieces in the dish, then top with half of the Canadian bacon. Repeat with the remaining muffin pieces and bacon.
3. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
4. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the layers in the baking dish. Gently press the bread down so it starts soaking up the custard.
5. Cover the dish tightly and refrigerate overnight, or for at least 8 hours.
6. Remove the casserole from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for 20 minutes while the oven preheats to 375°F.
7. Bake uncovered for 40 to 45 minutes, until the center is set and the top is lightly golden.
8. Prepare the hollandaise sauce according to package directions, or warm prepared hollandaise.
9. Spoon or drizzle the hollandaise over the warm casserole and finish with chopped parsley or chives before serving.
Notes
For the best texture, let the casserole rest overnight so the English muffins fully absorb the custard.
If the top starts browning too quickly, loosely cover the dish with foil during the last part of baking.
Hollandaise is best added just before serving so the casserole stays fresh and the sauce keeps its silky texture.
