Easter Brunch Casserole Ham & Cheese

Ingredients:

  • 8 large eggs
  • 2 cups milk
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard (optional)
  • 3 cups diced ham
  • 2 cups shredded cheese (cheddar or your favorite blend)
  • 4 cups cubed bread (day-old bread works best)
  • 2 green onions, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13 inch baking dish lightly with butter or cooking spray.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and Dijon mustard until fully combined.
  3. Add in the diced ham and shredded cheese, mixing gently to combine.
  4. Fold in the cubed bread, ensuring that all the bread pieces are coated with the egg mixture. Let sit for about 10 minutes to soften.
  5. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly. Use a spatula to ensure the ingredients are evenly distributed.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for about 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the egg is set in the center. A toothpick should come out clean when inserted.
  7. Remove from the oven and allow to rest for about 10 minutes. Garnish with chopped green onions before slicing.
