Everything Biscuit Breakfast Casserole
This everything biscuit breakfast casserole combines eggs, peppers, onions, and cheese with buttery biscuits in just one dish! You can use your favorite add-ins too! The best part is that you can prepare it ahead of time for busy mornings!
Ingredients
- 3 day-old biscuits, cut into bite-size pieces (about 4 cups)
- 1 bell pepper, chopped
- ⅓ cup onion, diced (about ½ small onion)
- 9 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup shredded cheese
- 2 Tablespoons everything bagel seasoning
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- optional garnish: scallions
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Generously grease a 9x9 baking pan.
- Place half the biscuit pieces into the bottom of the pan. Layer on the peppers and onions. Then, whisk the eggs, milk, cheese, 1 Tablespoon of everything bagel seasoning, salt and pepper together in a large bowl. Pour evenly over the biscuits and peppers/onions.
- Top with the rest of the biscuit pieces and gently press down into the egg mixture. You want some of the biscuits soaking up the eggs. Top with the remaining 1 Tablespoon of everything bagel seasoning.
- Bake for 65-70 minutes or until the center is set and the edges are golden brown. Remove from the oven and allow the casserole to cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
- Leftover casserole stays fresh in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
Notes
- Make Ahead & Freezing Instructions: Assemble the casserole through step 3, then cover tightly and store in the refrigerator overnight. Remove from the refrigerator while the oven pre-heats, then continue with step 4. You may need to bake it an extra 1-2 minutes. You can also freeze a cooked casserole for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator, then re-heat to your liking.
- Biscuits: You can use homemade biscuits, but store-bought is the easiest. Cut 4 biscuits into bite-size pieces, then let them sit overnight so they become a little stale. This will give the biscuits more texture and won't become too soggy in the egg mixture.
- Cheese: What cheese do you like the most? Use that! I love a good white or yellow cheddar cheese for this.
- Everything Bagel Seasoning: You can find everything bagel seasoning from most stores now. This seasoning adds tons of flavor. We use it often in this house so I buy it from Amazon (I find it's the best price for the size.)
- Milk: The milk helps thin out the eggs. For the best taste, I recommend using whole milk, though any type of milk works. I use oat milk or almond milk when I make this for lunches.
- Meat: You can add in your favorite type of meat. I've added sausage and it's delicious! Make whatever meat you add, it's pre-cooked. Layer in the meat in the same step that you add the peppers and onions.
