BACON, EGG AND CHEESE BREAKFAST CASSEROLE



Bacon, Egg and Cheese Breakfast Casserole image

Falling somewhere between a frittata and a tortilla española, this breakfast casserole has everything you love about a classic bacon, egg and cheese sandwich: smoky bacon, perfectly set eggs, sharp Cheddar and, if you want (and you definitely do), tangy hot sauce. Thinly sliced potatoes are added for structure and heft, and cooking them will be the most time-consuming part of this whole dish. The great news is that it's as delicious (if not more so) the next day, rewarmed or not. If you like, you can bake the casserole the night before and refrigerate, covered, when cool. To reheat, cover with foil and place in a 325-degree oven until warmed through, 25 to 30 minutes.

Time 55m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 pound thick-cut bacon, cut into 1-inch pieces
1/4 cup olive oil
1 1/2 pounds russet or Yukon Gold potatoes, unpeeled, sliced 1/4-inch thick or cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 large yellow onion, thinly sliced into rings
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
10 large eggs
6 ounces shredded sharp Cheddar or Monterey Jack
Hot sauce (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Cook bacon in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until crisp and the fat has rendered out, 8 to 10 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove from skillet, leaving fat behind.
  • Add olive oil, potatoes and onion slices to the skillet. Season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally until the potatoes are tender and start to brown, and the onions are golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Return bacon to skillet and stir to combine so that everything is distributed evenly.
  • In a large bowl, whisk eggs together and season with salt and pepper. Add cheese and whisk to blend. Transfer potato mixture to a 1 1/2- to 2-quart baking dish (any shape will work) and pour egg mixture over. Place in oven and bake until eggs are puffed around the edges and just set in the center, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and let cool slightly before eating. Serve with hot sauce if you like.

Provided by Katherine Sacks

Categories     Easter     Egg     Bacon     Brunch     Casserole/Gratin     Potluck     Cheese     Phyllo/Puff Pastry Dough     Potato     Breakfast

Yield 8-10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (14- or 17-ounce) box of puff pastry (preferably all-butter puff), thawed according to package directions
All-purpose flour (for surface)
14 large eggs, divided
9 strips bacon (about 8 ounces)
1 large onion, thinly sliced
8 ounces Gruyère, coarsely grated (about 2 1/2 cups)
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated or ground nutmeg
2 cups plus 1 tablespoon heavy cream, divided
1 medium Yukon Gold potato (about 5 ounces), cut into 1/2" cubes
5 ounces baby spinach

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. If using 14-oz. package of puff with 1 sheet of pastry, roll pastry to a 18x13" rectangle on a lightly floured surface. Cut in half crosswise; reserve remaining piece for another use. If using 17-oz. package with 2 sheets of pastry, roll 1 sheet to a 13x9" rectangle on a lightly floured surface; reserve remaining sheet for another use. Cut pastry lengthwise parallel to 13" side into 14 (1/2"-wide) strips. Transfer strips to a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet and chill while assembling casserole.
  • Bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Add 6 eggs, cover, and cook 7 minutes. Transfer eggs to a bowl of ice water and let cool completely. Peel eggs.
  • Meanwhile, working in batches, cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat, turning occasionally, until crisp, 10-12 minutes. Transfer bacon to paper towels, then transfer bacon fat to a small bowl. Let bacon cool, then coarsely chop.
  • Heat 2 tsp. bacon fat in same skillet over medium. Add onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until onion softens and turns translucent, 5-7 minutes.
  • Grease a 13x9" pan with 1 Tbsp. bacon fat; discard remaining fat or reserve for another use.
  • Whisk 8 eggs in a large bowl. Add cheese, salt, pepper, nutmeg, and 2 cups cream and whisk to combine. Add potato, spinach, onion, and chopped bacon and stir to combine. Pour into prepared pan. Cut cooked eggs in half lengthwise and arrange over filling, then press down so top edge of egg is even with top of filling.
  • Arrange chilled dough strips lengthwise 1" apart on the diagonal, trimming to fit flush against edge of pan; use trimmed dough on shorter sides. Lay more strips over arranged strips going the other direction, creating a lattice-like (but not woven) design. Brush dough with remaining 1 Tbsp. cream with a small pastry brush.
  • Bake casserole, rotating pan halfway through, until pastry is deep golden brown and cooked through, 50-55 minutes. Let cool 15 minutes before serving.
  • Do Ahead
  • Pastry strips can be cut 1 day ahead; arrange on rimmed baking sheet, cover with plastic wrap, and chill. Filling can be made 1 day ahead; cover and chill. Baked casserole can be made 1 day ahead; wrap tightly in plastic and chill. Reheat in a 350°F oven until warmed through, about 20 minutes.
