- Pour in the eggs and evaporated milk. Stir to combine.8 large eggs, 24 ounces evaporated milk
- Bake for 45 to 55 minutes if using a 9x13-inch pan. If using a deep, round 3-quart dish, bake for 1 hour to 1 ½ hours. The center may have a slight jiggle but not be watery. A knife inserted in the center should come out clean.
- Let it cool for at least 20 minutes to let it set before serving.
Notes
- The calories listed are an approximation based on the ingredients in the recipe card and a serving size of 1 cup of casserole. Actual calories will vary.
- There is a large gap in the cook time due to the type/size of pan options. Start checking the casserole about 5 to 10 minutes before it should be finished. A 3-quart dish will take longer to bake than a 9x13-inch dish. The 3-quart is deeper, so it could take 1 hour to 1 ½ hours depending on the depth of the dish.
- You can swap the Canadian bacon with diced ham, use your favorite shredded cheese, and cubed or shredded hash browns.
- Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days. Freeze the fully baked casserole for up to 3 months.
- To make the casserole ahead of time, assemble it but don't bake. Cover it tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight. Bake it when you're ready for breakfast the next day.
