Instructions
- Slice the baguette into bite-sized pieces (about ½”) with a serrated knife. You may use your hands to do this, too, though the appearance will be significantly more rustic.
- Place the bread into a greased 9”x9” square casserole dish.
- Crack the eggs into a large bowl. Break the yolks with a whisk or a fork.
- Add the diced hatch chile peppers and milk. Season with Cajun seasoning and black pepper. Whisk to combine.
- Sprinkle in a cup of shredded cheddar cheese. Stir to incorporate into the egg mixture.
- Pour the egg mixture over the bread. Top with the rest of the shredded cheese.
- Cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate overnight or for 8-12 hours.
- In the morning, preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Remove the egg casserole from the refrigerator. Uncover.
- Pop into the preheated oven, and bake uncovered for 30-35 minutes, or until bubbly and golden brown.
- Remove the casserole from the oven, and let cool for 10-15 minutes before you cut into it.
- Enjoy!
Notes
- How to store: Transfer to an airtight container and store in the fridge for 4-5 days. Reheat in the microwave in 30-second bursts until warmed through.
- Double or triple the recipe for a crowd. (Or make a double batch in two casserole dishes.)
- Make it spicier. Use spicy green chiles instead of mild green chiles to add more spice to this dish!
