Easy Overnight Christmas Breakfast Casserole Recipe

Ingredients

• 16 slices bread, crusts removed - divided
• 16 slices Canadian bacon
• 16 slices sharp Cheddar cheese
• 6 large eggs
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon dry mustard
• 0.25 cup minced onion
• 2 tablespoons diced green bell pepper
• 2 tablespoons diced red bell pepper
• 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
• 1 dash hot sauce
• 3 cups whole milk
• 0.5 cup butter, melted
• 1 cup crushed corn flakes cereal

Instructions

1. Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with butter. Arrange 8 slices of bread to cover the entire bottom of the dish.
2. Layer the bread with Canadian bacon slices and sharp Cheddar cheese. Top with the remaining 8 bread slices to completely cover the bacon and cheese.
3. In a bowl, whisk together eggs, salt, and black pepper. Whisk in dry mustard, onion, diced green and red bell pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and hot sauce. Gradually whisk in milk until the egg mixture is well combined.
4. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the casserole. Cover the dish tightly and refrigerate overnight for best results.
5. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Remove the casserole from the refrigerator while the oven is preheating. Drizzle melted butter evenly over the casserole and sprinkle with cornflake crumbs.
6. Bake in the preheated oven until the casserole is set and lightly browned, approximately 1 hour. Let the casserole rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
