Ingredients
- ½ cup unsalted butter melted and divided
- 1 cup Krusteaz Buttermilk Pancake Mix
- 1 cup milk divided
- 4 large eggs divided
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese 8 ounces, divided
- about 10 slices bacon cooked, drained, and diced small, divided (see tip below)*
- about 4 green onions about 1/3 cup, trimmed and sliced into thin rounds plus more for garnishing if desired
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper or to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375F. Spray a 9×9-inch square baking pan or casserole dish with cooking spray and even drizzle with 1/4 cup melted butter; set aside.
- To a medium bowl, add the pancake mix, 1/2 cup milk, 1 egg, remaining 1/4 cup melted butter, and whisk until smooth, some tiny lumps are okay. Pour over the melted butter in pan; set aside.
- Evenly sprinkle with 1 cup of cheese.
- Evenly sprinkle with half the bacon; reserve remainder to sprinkle on top; set aside.
- In a large bowl, add remaining milk, remaining 3 eggs, green onions, pepper and whisk to combine. Evenly pour over the cheese and bacon in pan.
- Evenly top with 1 cup cheese and bacon and bake for about 35 to 40 minutes, or until lightly golden brown and set in the center.
- Garnish with additional green onions and serve immediately. Recipe is best hot and fresh but leftovers will keep airtight in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat gently in the microwave or as desired.
Notes
- *Tip: I use one 2.1-ounce package (10 slices) pre-cooked bacon and simply microwave it for about 90 seconds to heat through; much faster than having to fully cook bacon.
