English Muffin Breakfast Casserole

English Muffin Breakfast Casserole: Savory Sweet and Satisfying

I have always loved English Muffins. I just need them toasted with a little bit of butter and sometimes some jelly. There is just something so delicious about those little muffins and all of those delicious nooks and crannies.

This breakfast takes those delicious English Muffins and puts them in a casserole with sausage, bacon, two kinds of cheese, eggs, Greek yogurt and some jalapeños for a little kick. A truly delicious combination. If you are not a fan of spicy jalapeños you can leave them out and it will still be delicious.

English Muffin Breakfast Casserole

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound breakfast sausage
  • 10 slices turkey bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 12 ounce package English Muffins
  • 8 ounces shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 8 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 6 eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups plain Greek yogurt
  • 16 pickled jalapeño slices, chopped

Directions:

  1. Grease a 9x13 baking dish with cooking spray.
  2. In a large skillet, over medium heat, cook the sausage until completely cooked and crumbled. Drain grease and set the sausage aside.
  3. Split the English muffins in half and place the bottom halves in the prepared baking dish.
  4. Place the top half of the English muffins on top, but offset so that it covers more of the baking dish.
  5. Place half of the sausage on top of the muffins, half of the bacon and half of both cheeses.
  6. In a large bowl whisk together the eggs, yogurt and jalapeños. Pour this mixture evenly over top of the casserole. Top the casserole with the remaining sausage, bacon and both cheeses.
  7. Cover the baking dish with saran wrap and refrigerate overnight.
  8. When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350º F.
  9. Uncover the casserole and place on the lower middle rack.
  10. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until the middle of the casserole it set.
  11. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.
Enjoy!!!
