Hard-Boiled Egg and Bacon Breakfast Casserole Ingredients
This casserole is a simple layered breakfast casserole. The basics for this simple breakfast casserole include:
- Hard-Boiled Eggs: Whether you are using colored easter eggs or just making this casserole, be sure to use this easy to peel method of cooking hard-boiled eggs.
- Bacon: Fried and crumbled or you can cut up and then fry. Either way, crispy bacon pieces.
- White Sauce: A basic flour and butter roux mixed with milk to make a simple white sauce.
- Cheese: Colby-Jack is my go-to but cheddar would be just fine too.
How to make a hard-boiled egg breakfast casserole
Start by frying up about a half pound of bacon. I cut the bacon before frying instead of crumbling whole slices after frying.
Spoon out the bacon on to a paper towel to absorb the grease.
Start making a cream sauce with three tablespoons of butter melted and three tablespoons of flour. Mix together and cook for a minute before adding two cups of milk, slowly.
Cook until the sauce thickens. Then add one cup of shredded colby jack or cheddar cheese.
Make sure you have three to four eggs peeled and sliced. Then it is time to start layering your hard-boiled egg and bacon breakfast casserole. Grab a 1.5-quart casserole dish. Begin by having a layer of cheese sauce, then eggs, bacon followed by the sauce.
Repeat two to three times, ending with sauce on top and sprinkle with bacon. Bake for 25-30 minutes on 350 degrees.

Your kids will be licking the bowl it is so tasty! Another pre-soccer game meal accomplished for this working mom!

We love this casserole. Try adding crushed potato chips on the bottom and sprinkled in top. Itโs delicious!
Sounds really different. Could this be prepped the night before and baked the next morning?
I would use the toast points to dip into the casserole! Not sure the addition of bread to this casserole would work.
This sounds yummy & not with the usual hash brown potatoes. Would it be possible to put toast points in it? Would it need more cheese sauce? Or thinner sauce?
Oh I think this sounds great! I think it would make a great dish to take to a pot luck!
Glad to see you again! ๐
Keep 'Em coming.
