Eggs Benedict Casserole Recipe
Description
The recipe layers chopped Canadian bacon and English muffin pieces in a casserole dish, then pours over a mixture of beaten eggs and milk which soaks into the bread before baking. A sprinkle of paprika adds mild color and flavor. Baking creates a firm yet tender custard texture that holds the ingredients together.
The hollandaise sauce is prepared separately on low heat by whisking egg yolks with cream, lemon juice, mustard, and slowly incorporating melted butter to achieve a smooth, creamy sauce that complements the casserole. Serving the warm hollandaise alongside or over the casserole enriches the dish with its tang and smooth consistency.
This casserole makes it easy to prepare a crowd-pleasing brunch in advance as it can be refrigerated before baking. The combination of hearty ingredients and creamy sauce fits well for weekend breakfasts or special occasions.
