Time 1h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Butter for baking dish
10 slices (6 ounces) bacon
1 1/2 cups whole milk
1/4 teaspoon mace
1 cup grated cheddar cheese
1/4 cup tomato ketchup, more if desired
4 large eggs
8 small slices (or 4 large slices, halved) stale or day-old white bakery bread

Steps:

  • The night before baking, butter an 8-by-12 inch baking dish and set aside. In a large skillet over medium heat, fry bacon until crisp; drain on paper towels and allow to cool.
  • In a large bowl whisk together the milk, mace, cheese, 1/4 cup ketchup and eggs. Lay bread, slightly overlapping, in two rows down length of dish. Pour milk mixture evenly over slices. Crumble bacon over top. Cover dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
  • In the morning, remove dish from refrigerator and bring to room temperature. Heat oven to 350 degrees. Bake egg mixture until top is crispy and golden, about 40 minutes. Cut into squares and serve, if desired, with ketchup on the side.

I was disappointed with this recipe. The bacon and eggs were overcooked and the cheese was not melted. I would not recommend this recipe.

This was a good recipe. The bacon and eggs were cooked perfectly and the cheese was melted and bubbly. However, I found that the casserole was a bit dry. I would recommend adding some milk or cream to the mixture.

I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out great! I used a 9x13 inch pan and it was the perfect size. The bacon and eggs were cooked perfectly and the cheese was melted and bubbly. I will definitely be making this again.
