No poaching dozens of eggs. No frantic last-minute sauce work. Just layers, a simple custard, a quick bake, and warm hollandaise on top. Sound like a dream? It is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Brief introduction to the recipe<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Think breakfast that feels fancy but behaves like a weekday meal. This casserole soaks toasted English muffin pieces in a silky egg-and-milk custard, tucks savory <strong>Canadian bacon<\/strong> between the layers, and finishes with a drizzle of warm hollandaise and a sprinkle of parsley. Make it the night before, pop it in the oven in the morning, and pretend you\u2019re a brunch pro. FYI: guests will assume you started baking hours earlier \u2014 you won\u2019t correct them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why you\u2019ll love this dish<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>It\u2019s built from pantry staples and fridge finds \u2014 no exotic shopping runs.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It delivers all the classic Benedict flavors with none of the fuss.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It\u2019s totally <strong>make-ahead<\/strong> \u2014 perfect for stress-free mornings and <strong>Breakfast Meal Prep<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It\u2019s customizable: swap in veggies, change the protein, or use a different sauce.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It feeds a crowd and travels well for potlucks or holiday brunches.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Short version: it\u2019s the perfect marriage of convenience and class. What\u2019s not to love?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The story behind the bake<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>I invented this casserole the year I hosted Christmas morning for a dozen relatives. I loved Eggs Benedict but didn\u2019t love poaching a dozen eggs while everyone stared at me like some sort of culinary contestant. So I converted the flavors into a casserole \u2014 the English muffins soaked up the custard, <strong>Canadian bacon<\/strong> got golden in the oven, and the hollandaise still made its grand entrance on top. It became the official \u201cno-fuss holiday breakfast.\u201d People text me about it every season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ingredients breakdown \u2014 short, practical blurbs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>English muffins<\/strong> \u2014 the nooks and crannies matter. Tear them into bite-size pieces; they absorb custard perfectly.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Canadian bacon<\/strong> \u2014 the salty anchor that screams \u201cBenedict.\u201d It\u2019s leaner than regular bacon and holds up during baking. Use thick slices for heartier bites.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Large <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/9amchef.com\/weekend-brunch-baked-cottage-cheese-eggs-elevated-breakfast-recipes\/\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"2301\">eggs \u2014<\/a> eggs are the structural glue here; they create that custardy set.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Whole milk or half-and-half<\/strong> \u2014 richness matters. Whole milk works, half-and-half makes it silkier.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Onion and garlic powders<\/strong> \u2014 subtle seasoning without overpowering the classic flavors.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Salt &amp; freshly cracked black pepper<\/strong> \u2014 taste as you go. Bacon can be salty; adjust accordingly.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Paprika<\/strong> \u2014 a light dusting on top gives color and a whisper of smokiness.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Hollandaise<\/strong> \u2014 homemade or quality store-bought; warm it gently before serving.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Fresh parsley<\/strong> \u2014 for brightness and color.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Bold tip:<\/strong> <strong>use day-old English muffins<\/strong> or toast them lightly first to avoid a soggy casserole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to make it \u2014 step-by-step \u201cHow To Make It\u201d<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Follow this sequence for a reliable, tasty result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Prep the pan.<\/strong> Lightly spray a 9\u00d713-inch baking dish with cooking spray or grease it with butter. This saves cleanup and prevents sticking.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Layer the bacon.<\/strong> Scatter half the diced <strong>Canadian bacon<\/strong> across the bottom. This creates pockets of savory goodness through the casserole.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Add the muffin pieces.<\/strong> Spread half the torn English muffin pieces over the bacon so they nestle into the pan.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Repeat.<\/strong> Add the rest of the bacon and then the remaining muffin pieces for even distribution.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Mix the custard.<\/strong> Whisk together large eggs, whole milk (or half-and-half), onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until silky. Make sure there are no streaks of white.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Pour it in.<\/strong> Gently pour the custard mixture over the layered muffins and bacon. Press down lightly with a spatula so the muffins soak up the liquid.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Soak time.<\/strong> Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours \u2014 overnight is best. This building block step is what turns dry bread into a plush custardy base.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Bake.<\/strong> Preheat the oven to <strong>375\u00b0F (190\u00b0C)<\/strong>. Uncover, dust lightly with paprika, and bake for 35\u201340 minutes, until the top is golden and the center sets. A knife inserted in the center should come out clean.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Warm the hollandaise.<\/strong> While the casserole finishes, warm the hollandaise gently on the stove or according to package directions. Don\u2019t boil it \u2014 you just want it warm and pourable.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Finish &amp; serve.<\/strong> Let the casserole rest 5 minutes, drizzle with warm hollandaise, sprinkle chopped parsley, cut into squares, and serve hot.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Bold tip:<\/strong> <strong>refrigerate overnight<\/strong> for the best custardy texture \u2014 skipping this step makes the muffins less permeable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/9amchef.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Easy-Eggs-Benedict-Casserole-Bake-\u2014-Make-Ahead-Brunch-Favorite-2.webp\" alt=\"Pan of golden Eggs Benedict Casserole with warm hollandaise, chopped parsley, and visible chunks of English muffin and diced Canadian Bacon.\" class=\"wp-image-56857\" srcset=\"https:\/\/9amchef.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Easy-Eggs-Benedict-Casserole-Bake-\u2014-Make-Ahead-Brunch-Favorite-2.webp 1024w, https:\/\/9amchef.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Easy-Eggs-Benedict-Casserole-Bake-\u2014-Make-Ahead-Brunch-Favorite-2-60x60.webp 60w, https:\/\/9amchef.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Easy-Eggs-Benedict-Casserole-Bake-\u2014-Make-Ahead-Brunch-Favorite-2-768x768.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pro tips for perfect results<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Don\u2019t overbake.<\/strong> The center should set but still feel slightly soft \u2014 it will continue to firm as it cools.

id=\"instruction-step-2\">Scatter half of the diced Canadian bacon evenly across the bottom of the dish.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-3\">Evenly distribute half of the torn English muffin pieces over the bacon.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-4\">Layer the remaining bacon and then the rest of the muffin pieces so the pan has two even layers.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-5\">In a large bowl, whisk the eggs with the milk, onion powder, salt, garlic powder, and black pepper until smooth and uniform.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-6\">Pour the egg mixture slowly over the layered muffins and bacon, pressing gently with a spatula so the muffins soak up the custard. Bold tip: press down so dry pockets disappear \u2014 this helps ensure an even, custardy texture.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-7\">Cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best texture and flavor.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-8\">When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 375\u00b0F (190\u00b0C). Uncover the dish, dust the top lightly with paprika, and bake for 35\u201340 minutes, until the top is golden and the center is set.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-9\">Warm the hollandaise gently according to package or recipe instructions. Let the casserole rest a few minutes after baking, then drizzle with warm hollandaise and finish with minced parsley. Serve in squares while hot.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t\n\t\t\t<hr data-tasty-recipes-customization=\"secondary-color.border-color secondary-color.background-color\">\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"tasty-recipes-notes\">\n\t\t\t<h3 data-tasty-recipes-customization=\"h3-color.color h3-transform.text-transform\">Notes<\/h3>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"tasty-recipes-notes-body\" data-tasty-recipes-customization=\"body-color.color\">\n\t\t\t\t<ul>\n<li><strong>Quick notes &amp; swaps<\/strong>\n<ul>\n<li>Make-ahead: assemble and chill overnight.
