Can I make eggs Benedict ahead of time?

Yes you can make this easy casserole recipe ahead of time and bake when you're ready. Let the dish sit in your fridge for up to one day and throw in the oven for an easy dinner or party dish.

This is one of the reasons why I love making this recipe along with my easy taco casserole when I want to impress without tons of work!

Head to the kitchen and grab...

• Eggs - You'll need 8 eggs for this recipe and more for the homemade sauce.
• Bacon - For perfectly crispy bacon every time, I make instant pot bacon. For this recipe, chopped bacon works best and make sure to drain any excess grease.
• English muffins - Canyon bakehouse gluten-free english muffins are my favorite for this gluten-free egg Benedict. Although you can use your favorite type of english muffin.
• Heavy cream - Using heavy cream in addition to milk adds a creamier taste and texture.
• Milk - Do not swap for almond milk or another plant based milk. 
• Butter
• Spices - Onion powder, fresh chives, salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika are my go-to's but feel free to add your favorite seasoning or fresh herbs.

For the hollandaise sauce...

• Egg yolks
• Butter - You can use salted or unsalted butter.
• Cream - Just like the casserole, heavy cream makes this sauce, well, creamy!
• Lemon juice - For that classic hollandaise taste.
• Seasoning - A touch of dijon and cayenne pepper adds smoky notes that everyone loves.

How to make a gluten free egg Benedict casserole

Step 1: Prepare

Cut the english muffins into small cubes and place them on a greased casserole dish along with the bacon.

Step 2: Whisk

In a large mixing bowl, whisk the remaining casserole ingredients together then pour over the toasted english muffins and bacon.

Step 3: Cook

After the casserole has refrigerated, bake it uncovered for 35 minutes, and then uncovered until golden brown.

Step 4: Serve

Serve with your own hollandaise sauce. (See recipe card for sauce instructions).

Pro tip: Toasting your bread before baking allows the bread to maintain its shape and texture while still soaking up the egg mixture.

Tips for success

• Let the casserole rest - After the dish is done baking, let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the casserole to set and the flavors to come together.
• Use stale bread - Using stale bread or english muffins is a great way to prevent food waste and take this recipe to the next level. Like my french toast casserole, this recipe actually works best with 2-day old bread.
• Add some spice - If you're a fan of spicy foods, try adding some hot sauce, red pepper flakes, Tabasco sauce, etc. to the egg mixture before baking. This is an easy way to add a flavor element.

Storage

Storing - You can store this casserole in the fridge for 2-3 days. Make sure that the casserole is cooled to room temperature before storing. Reheat in the oven or microwave and top with more creamy hollandaise sauce.

Freezing - Freeze this casserole before or after baking for up to 3 months. If you choose to freeze the recipe before baking, let it thaw in the fridge overnight before baking.
