This is so easy and delicious. I did not make ahead of time and it turned out perfect. I used skim milk with success. Will be making again!

Loved this!! The only substitution I made was using a loaf of Italian bread, crusts removed, instead of 8 slices of white bread. I think this added some density, and kept it from being soggy. I made it for a girls' weekend, and it was a hit. I took the tiny piece that was left, reheated it the next day, and it was still great. Thanks for a keeper!

This was very yummy!! I made a half portion as a trial for visitors arriving next week. I had viewed other recipes, that let the mixture sit overnight in the fridge so I did this as a time saver. Worked beautifully. I baked half portion for 40mins and it was puffed up and golden!! My little girls didn't 'love' it but a little ketchup helped. We ate it with spicy salsa and cleaned our plates!!! Easy to prepare and I liked being able to put in the fridge and save time in the am, especially when you have guests!

I threw this together this morning. It turned out great!! The spices made it excellent. We only had 1% milk and we still think that it was so rich and perfect. Thank you for sharing your recipe. We definately will be making this over the holidays!!!

This was my choice recipe for Christmas breakfast. I loved that I could prepare a day ahead and just pop it in the oven in the morning. It filled the kitchen with a wonderful, welcoming aroma...and then it filled our bellies! I used 1/2 of a French bread loaf cut into cubes and had no problem using skim milk. Several people thought it was a quiche since it was fluffy and light. Thanks for sharing!

My friends mom used to make this for Christmas. Instead of plain bread cubes, she used to use seasoned croutons and half and half then let it set overnight in the fridge. It was always so good. Thanks for reminding me of this recipe.... V.

Excellent taste and easy to make! I made ahead on Christmas Eve, using leftover hamburger and hotdog buns instead of sliced bread and hot sausage. Christmas morning, I popped it in the oven while we opened presents. It was a hit!

This was a nice breakfast recipe. I made this with home made bread which made a nice platform for this casserole. Other than that, I opted to use a little cayenne pepper in place of the dry mustard and it was a huge hit. Guests ranged from age 6-52 and all were well pleased. I was concerned when I put it in the oven because it really looked like a lot of bread and little of anything else, but it cooked and rose to perfection. I wouldn't change anything on this recipe and it was nice not to have to let it sit overnight. Thanks for an awesome recipe! :D

Great recipe! I used a drier loaf of french bread from the supermarket bakery, and country dijon mustard instead of the dry mustard. It had a fabulous texture and flavor, and was gobbled up. The one piece I had left over I ate on the way to work the next day!! Thanks a million, this is now my go-to breakfast/brunch recipe!!

Loved this! I used homemade veal sausage in place of the pork and fried it with a half an onion. Nothing was left!!This is going on my perminate family favorite list.Thank you Dlryshe

Why do egg casseroles have to sit overnight?

The casserole is covered and refrigerated overnight to allow the liquid ingredients to be absorbed into the bread. This is a perishable mixture and should be cooked the morning or day after assembly. Bake in an oven set no lower than 325 °F. Most recipes suggest 350 °F.

How do you keep breakfast casserole from falling?

HOW DO YOU KEEP EGG CASSEROLE FROM FALLING. Before serving your egg casserole, let it stand for 5 minutes to allow it to set before cutting into it. Do not open the oven door until 25 mins have passed.

How do I thicken my breakfast casserole?

Adding in a small amount of cornstarch keeps the consistency of the egg base tender and glossy. Cornstarch is a thickening agent that can also stabilize fully cooked eggs.
