Ingredients

Scale

Main Casserole:

  • 12 large eggs
  • 2 cups milk
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup shredded Swiss cheese
  • 1 cup diced cooked ham (or Canadian bacon)
  • 1 package (12 oz) English muffins, split and toasted, then cut into cubes
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh chives (for garnish)

Hollandaise Sauce:

  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 3 large egg yolks
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • Salt and cayenne pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Prepare the Casserole Base: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until well combined. Stir in the Swiss cheese and diced ham (or Canadian bacon).
  3. Combine with English Muffins: In a greased 9×13-inch casserole dish, layer the toasted English muffin cubes evenly across the bottom. Pour the egg mixture over the English muffin cubes, ensuring all muffin pieces are well-coated. Gently press the mixture down to ensure it’s compacted.
  4. Bake the Casserole: Cover the casserole with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is lightly golden.
  5. Prepare the Hollandaise Sauce: While the casserole is baking, melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. In a medium bowl, whisk egg yolks and lemon juice together until thick and pale. Gradually drizzle in the melted butter while continuously whisking until you achieve the desired creamy consistency. Season with salt and cayenne pepper to taste. Keep warm.
  6. Serve the Casserole: Once the casserole is out of the oven, let it cool for a few minutes. Cut into squares for serving. Drizzle the warm Hollandaise sauce over each serving and garnish with fresh chives.

Notes

  • This casserole can be prepared the night before and refrigerated, then baked in the morning for a quick and delicious breakfast.
