Bacon Croissant Breakfast Casserole
INGREDIENTS:
6–8 croissants, torn into large pieces (slightly stale works best)
8 slices Hempler’s Center Cut Bacon, cooked and chopped
8 large eggs
2 cups milk (whole or 2%)
1 ½ cup shredded cheese (cheddar and mozzarella)
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon pepper
½ teaspoon garlic powder
Optional: 2–3 green onions, sliced
DIRECTIONS:
Cook the Hempler’s Center Cut Bacon until crispy. Let cool slightly, then chop into bite-sized pieces.
Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. Add the torn croissants evenly across the bottom. Sprinkle the chopped bacon and cheese over the top.
In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
Pour the egg mixture evenly over the croissant mixture, pressing down gently so everything soaks it up.
Let the casserole sit for 15–20 minutes (or cover and refrigerate overnight for an easy make-ahead option).
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Bake uncovered for 35–40 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is golden brown.
Let cool for 5–10 minutes before serving. Top with sliced green onions if using.
