Tips for the Best Bisquick Breakfast Casserole
- Make sure the casserole is cooked all the way through before you remove it from the oven! Do so by sticking a thin knife directly into the center of the casserole. Once it comes out clean with no residue, it’s fully cooked.
- Feel free to top your Bisquick egg casserole off with some bacon bits, green onions, or whatever else your heart desires.
- The crust layer will be sticky, so be sure to spread it into the pan with a greased utensil.
- Use 4 large eggs instead of 2 for maximum fluffiness in the egg layer of your breakfast casserole.
- Layer ham, bacon, sausage crumbles, or vegetables over the bottom crust before evenly pouring in the egg mixture on top.
Storage
You can keep your leftovers fresh in the fridge for up to 4 days. Just be sure to first let the casserole cool fully to room temperature before transferring it into an airtight food storage container.
Why is my casserole so moist?
You may notice that this casserole is a bit more moist than other egg casseroles. This is because the green chilis and ham tend to lend a bit of moisture to the eggs.
An option is to blot the green chiles dry with a paper towel after draining them or omit them from the recipe if you prefer a drier casserole.
Is this breakfast casserole spicy?
In my opinion, no it is not. The green chiles and Monterey jack cheese certainly lend flavor, but not necessarily spice. However, everyone’s tastes are different, so plan accordingly!
Can this casserole be made ahead of time?
Yes, it can! Assemble it as written, but don’t bake.
Cover it tightly in plastic wrap then refrigerate overnight. Allow the casserole to sit at room temperature for 20 to 30 minutes before baking.
