Ingredients
  

  • 6 English muffins cubed
  • 8 large eggs
  • 2 cups milk
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 cups diced ham
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • ¼ cup chopped green onions
  • 4 egg yolks
  • ½ cup melted butter
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • ¼ teaspoon paprika
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions
 

Prepare the Baking Dish

  • Grease a 9x13 baking dish lightly with butter or cooking spray. Spread cubed English muffins evenly inside the dish. This layer creates the soft and hearty base for the casserole.

Add the Ham and Cheese

  • Sprinkle diced ham over the muffin cubes evenly. Add shredded cheddar cheese and green onions on top. The ham gives savory flavor while the cheese adds creamy richness to every bite.

Mix the Egg Mixture

  • In a large bowl, whisk eggs, milk, heavy cream, salt, black pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder together. Mix until smooth and well combined. This mixture makes the casserole soft and fluffy.

Pour and Chill

  • Pour the egg mixture slowly over the casserole layers. Press gently so the bread absorbs the liquid evenly. Cover the dish and refrigerate for at least one hour before baking.

Bake the Casserole

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Bake the casserole for about 40 minutes until golden and firm. The center should look set and the top should have light browning.

Make the Hollandaise Sauce

  • Whisk egg yolks, melted butter, lemon juice, paprika, and salt together in a saucepan over low heat. Stir constantly until smooth and slightly thickened. Avoid high heat to prevent curdling.

Serve and Enjoy

  • Remove the casserole from the oven carefully. Let it rest for five minutes before slicing. Drizzle warm Hollandaise sauce over each serving and enjoy this comforting breakfast casserole fresh and warm.

Notes

  • Use day-old English muffins for better texture
  • Add cooked bacon instead of ham
  • Use Swiss cheese for deeper flavor
  • Chill overnight for easier mornings
  • Add spinach for extra vegetables
  • Do not overbake the casserole
  • Stir Hollandaise sauce constantly
  • Add hot sauce for extra spice
