Cheesy Egg Potato and Ham Frittata Brunch Casserole image

This makes a wonderful weekend brunch, I have made it many time in the past, it's very easy to make too! You can make this using cold cooked finely diced potatoes in place of hash browns, I have made this using leftover potatoes with great success! Feel free to add in green bell pepper, jalapeno peppers, skiced mushrooms, or whatever you wish! The skillet cooking time will take slightly longer.

Plan ahead this needs to be refrigerated for 6-8 hours before baking, I have left the green onions and cayenne pepper as optional you may add them in or omit, I like to add in for extra flavor, 1 pound cooked Italian sausages meat may be used in place of the ham --- this makes a wonderful weekend brunch!

Time 6h50m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

12 slices bread (cubed into about 1-inch cubes, can use white or whole wheat or both)
3 cups cubed cooked ham
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (can use a little more)
7 large eggs
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 1/2 cups half-and-half cream or 1 1/2 cups milk
1 teaspoon seasoning salt (can use white salt)
1 teaspoon mustard powder
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 pinch cayenne pepper (optional)
2 green onions, chopped (optional)

Steps:

Butter a 13 x 9-inch baking dish.
Spread the bread cubes into the bottom of the baking dish.
Sprinkle with ham and shredded cheddar cheese.
In a bowl whisk the eggs with baking powder, half and half cream, seasoned salt, dry mustard powder, Worcestershire sauce and cayenne (if using).
Mix in green onions.
Pour over the bread cubes in the pan.
Cover and chill for at least 6-8 hours.
Set oven to 350 degrees F.
Bake uncovered for 50-50 minutes. (This cannot be correct.).
Allow to stand for about 5-7 minutes before slicing.

Tips:

Use a variety of cheeses. This will give your casserole a more complex flavor. Try using a combination of cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan cheeses.
Don't overcook the eggs. Overcooked eggs will be tough and rubbery. Cook the eggs until they are just set, about 15-20 minutes.
Serve the casserole immediately. This is when it is at its best. You can also make the casserole ahead of time and reheat it in the oven before serving.
Garnish the casserole with fresh herbs. This will add a pop of color and flavor. Try using chives, parsley, or dill.
Serve the casserole with a side of toast or fruit. This will help to balance out the flavors of the casserole.

Conclusion:

Ham and egg brunch casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weekend brunch or holiday meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover ham. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a flavorful and satisfying casserole that your family and friends will love.
