Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Eggs Benedict Casserole
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Gather ingredients and prepare your baking dish.
  2. Split the English muffins in half and cut each half into 1-inch pieces. Arrange them in a greased baking dish.
  3. Evenly sprinkle the chopped Canadian bacon over the muffins.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, onion powder, and cheese until creamy.
  5. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the muffin and bacon layers. Gently press down to saturate.
  6. Cover and refrigerate overnight to meld flavors and ensure muffins absorb the custard.
  7. Remove the cover and bake for 30 minutes covered with foil. Then uncover and bake for an additional 15 minutes.
  8. Let the casserole rest for about 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
