BACON AND EGG CASSEROLE



Bacon and Egg Casserole image

Like quiche, this savory brunch dish has a custard filling; using frozen puff pastry instead of traditional pie dough makes it even simpler to prepare.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/4 pound store-bought puff pastry, thawed
8 ounces bacon (about 12 slices), cut crosswise into 1/2-inch strips
1 medium onion, halved and thinly sliced
3 large eggs
1/2 cup heavy cream
salt and fresh ground pepper
1 1/2 cups grated Gruyere cheese (4 ounces)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. On a lightly floured surface, roll pastry to 10-inch square (trim the edges with a paring knife). Fit the pastry into an 8-inch square baking pan, folding corners to fit. Prick bottom of dough with a fork.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add bacon; cook, stirring occasionally, until pieces start to brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Add onions; cook, stirring occasionally, until bacon is crisp and onions are lightly browned, 5 to 7 minutes. With a slotted spoon, transfer mixture to a plate; let cool slightly.
  • Scatter onion mixture over pastry. In a small bowl, whisk eggs, cream, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Pour egg mixture into pastry shell. Sprinkle Gruyere over top. Bake until filling is set and top is golden brown, about 40 minutes.

Tips:

  • Fresh spinach is typically used, but if unavailable, frozen spinach can be substituted by squeezing excess water before adding.
  • Use a non-stick skillet to prevent eggs from sticking and ensure even cooking.
  • Cook bacon until crispy for optimal flavor and texture, but adjust cooking time based on personal preference.
  • If unsalted butter is used, add a pinch of salt to the recipe to enhance flavors.
  • Season the egg mixture with salt, pepper, and garlic powder for a classic flavor profile.
  • Use shredded cheddar cheese for a gooey and flavorful filling, or experiment with different cheese varieties for unique flavor combinations.
  • Pour the egg mixture over the cooked spinach and bacon mixture evenly to ensure consistent cooking.
  • Bake the casserole at 350°F (175°C) for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Allow the casserole to cool for a few minutes before serving to facilitate slicing and prevent crumbling.
  • Garnish with chopped fresh herbs, such as chives or parsley, for added color and flavor.
  • Conclusion:

    This versatile and delicious spinach bacon egg casserole is perfect for various occasions, whether a hearty breakfast, brunch, or lunch option.
