When cooking for a group, or if you need to make breakfast beforehand, turn to this hearty classic: the bacon and egg casserole. Filled with smoky bacon, creamy eggs, gooey cheese and a hint of tangy sour cream, this delightful combination of flavors is everything you want in a breakfast casserole recipe<\/a>.<\/p>\n Like quiche, frittatas and strata, this breakfast casserole with bacon is quick, easy to prepare and has minimal cleanup. It’s a hassle-free option for weekly meal prep or something to serve on a brunch buffet. Warning: If your house is like mine, everyone, pets included, will wander into the kitchen when they smell the aroma of sizzling bacon and beg for a bite. Everyone will clamor for a slice of this bacon, egg and cheese casserole too.<\/p>\n In a large skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp. Remove from skillet and place on a paper towel to drain.<\/p>\n Editor’s Tip:<\/em> Baking bacon<\/a> in the oven alleviates the bacon grease mess on the stovetop. There are other ways to cook bacon<\/a>\u00a0as well, including in the microwave.<\/p>\n Using a whisk, beat eggs in a large bowl. Add the milk, cheese, sour cream, onions, salt and pepper. Mix until thoroughly combined.<\/p>\n Pour the egg mixture into a greased 13×9-inch baking dish. Crumble the bacon and sprinkle it on top. Bake, uncovered, at 325\u00b0F until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes. Let the casserole stand for five minutes before serving.<\/p>\n After baking, cover the casserole and store it in the refrigerator for up to three days. It also freezes well! Cut it into slices and wrap well for individual servings, then store them in a freezer-safe bag or airtight container for up to two months. Thaw the casserole in the fridge overnight and reheat in a 325\u00b0 oven until the internal temperature reaches 165\u00b0, or reheat in the microwave.<\/p>\n Absolutely. This breakfast casserole is perfect to make the night before. You can make the mix and store it in a covered bowl overnight, then pour it into a casserole dish and bake in the morning.<\/p>\n To avoid a soggy bacon and egg casserole, don’t add moisture-rich vegetables unless you’re cooking them first, and make sure your casserole is cooked all the way through. If it’s a little jiggly in the center, that’s fine; it should still be more firm than jiggly. If it looks soggy, pop it back in the oven for a few more minutes.<\/p>\n The easiest way to tell if your egg casserole is cooked is to stick a clean knife into the center\u2014if it comes out clean, your casserole is cooked.<\/p>\n All things breakfast and brunch pair perfectly with this casserole. Hosting? Try whipping up a fruit charcuterie board<\/a>, some oven-fried potatoes<\/a> or an assortment of brunch baked goods<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Bacon and egg casserole features all your favorite classic breakfast ingredients in one dish.

Egg Casserole Tips<\/h2>
What are egg casseroles called? <\/h3>Breakfast casseroles<\/a> are popular around the world, and depending on where you are, they can be called different things. The French have quiche<\/a>, which typically has a pastry crust; Italians have frittatas<\/a>, which don't have a crust; and Americans have strata<\/a>, which usually contains bread. All of these dishes involve various meats, vegetables and cheeses enveloped in eggs or egg custard.
How do you know when egg casserole is done? <\/h3>The easiest way to tell if your egg casserole is cooked is to stick a clean knife into the center\u2014if it comes out clean, it\u2019s cooked. But don't let your wet ingredients, like tomatoes, fool you\u2014try to insert the knife in an area that\u2019s mostly all egg.\r\n
How long can breakfast casserole be refrigerated before cooking? <\/h3>The nice thing about many egg casseroles is that you can prepare them ahead of time and refrigerate them overnight. In fact, some casseroles need this rest to rehydrate ingredients and allow flavors to blend. But if you\u2019re making a quiche, don\u2019t refrigerate it unbaked\u2014otherwise, the crust will get soggy. However, you can make the pie crust and get it in the pan, prepare the egg mixture, and store both (separately) in the refrigerator overnight. Then in the morning, just pour the filling into the crust and pop it in the oven.\r\n
