Ingredients
Bake Ingredients
- 1 (16 oz) can refrigerated biscuit dough, cut into quarters
- 8 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 1½ cups shredded cheddar cheese (or Colby-Jack)
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- Cooking spray or butter for greasing
Instructions
- Preheat Oven and Prepare Dish: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter to prevent sticking.
- Arrange Biscuit Pieces: Spread the quartered biscuit dough pieces evenly in the greased baking dish to form the base layer.
- Add Bacon and Cheese: Sprinkle the cooked and crumbled bacon evenly over the biscuit pieces, then top with the shredded cheddar or Colby-Jack cheese to create a flavorful middle layer.
- Mix Egg Mixture: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until fully combined and smooth.
- Combine and Coat: Pour the egg mixture evenly over the biscuit, bacon, and cheese layers in the baking dish. Gently toss with a spoon or spatula to ensure the biscuit pieces are coated with the egg mixture.
- Bake: Place the baking dish uncovered in the preheated oven. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the biscuit pieces are fully cooked and the center of the casserole is set and firm.
- Rest and Serve: Remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes to allow flavors to settle before slicing and serving.
Notes
- Add chopped green onions or diced bell peppers to the egg mixture for extra flavor and color.
- Substitute the bacon with sausage or ham based on preference or dietary restrictions.
- If the top starts to brown too quickly during baking, cover loosely with foil to prevent burning.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days for best freshness.
