Here is a quick and easy hard-boiled egg and bacon breakfast casserole to use up some of your Easter eggs. This is the perfect Easter egg brunch casserole.
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.

- Create a rue by melting flour and butter together in a saucepan. Cook for one minute and slowly start adding milk to the rue. Cook over medium heat, whisking to make sure the sauce doesn't scorch, till sauce thickens and begins to boil.

- Using a 1.5-quart casserole dish begin by layering a thin layer of sauce followed by eggs and then bacon. Repeat at least twice. End with sauce followed with a bacon top.

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?
Leah
I would use the toast points to dip into the casserole! Not sure the addition of bread to this casserole would work.
Cindy
Sounds really different. Could this be prepped the night before and baked the next morning?

We love this casserole. Try adding crushed potato chips on the bottom and sprinkled in top. Itโs delicious!
