What You Need to Make This Recipe:
The kitchen equipment needed to create this recipe is very basic:
How To Make Eggs Benedict for a Crowd
Begin with Canadian bacon I used 6oz total, but you could use more if you’d like. Layer half of it at the casserole’s base, creating a savory foundation.
Next up, the croissants – five or six, depending on your fancy. Cube them into delightful morsels, almost like croutons, and layer them on top of the Canadian bacon in the casserole dish. Simple, right?
In a medium bowl, crack open ten eggs, add two cups of milk, and sprinkle in the magic – onion powder, ground mustard, white pepper, and a dash of salt. Amp it up with sliced scallions for that extra kick.
Top it all off with the remaining Canadian bacon and pour that glorious egg and milk mixture over the layers. Slide it into the oven at 375 degrees, covered in foil for 30 minutes, then unveil its golden potential for another 15 to 20 minutes.
I confess, I forgot the aluminum foil, but my casserole turned out a tad crispy and absolutely perfect. For that classic eggs Benedict touch, a packet of hollandaise sauce came to the rescue – simple instructions on the back, a drizzle on top, and voilà!
A Win for the Whole Crowd!
A hit in my house, this Eggs Benedict Casserole offers the rich flavors of a traditional eggs benedict without the hassle of poaching eggs. A tad sophisticated for the kiddos, but it’s a contender to replace quiches in future breakfast feasts.
Bid farewell to breakfast monotony and embrace the ease of the Eggs Benedict Casserole – a festive, flavorful treat that’s sure to become a holiday tradition. May your Christmas morning be filled with warmth, joy, and delightful breakfast surprises!
