Recipe Instructions

You’re going to love how easy this bubble up breakfast casserole is to make. Simply cook the bacon and sausage and then some layer everything and it’s ready to go! It’s perfect to prep in advance of Christmas morning or any time you’re hosting guests for breakfast!

Biscuit Type: I used a 16 oz. can of Pillsbury Grands biscuits and cut them into 6 pieces. If you use a 12 oz. can of regular-sized biscuits cut them into quarters instead. Add Veggies: You may add peppers, onions, mushrooms, or whatever vegetables you would like to this casserole. Be sure to cook them in a skillet before adding them to the baking dish along with the meat. Change the Meat: You can use a variety of meat in this casserole, but I recommend keeping it around one pound total. Try using diced ham, maple sausage, hot sausage, turkey sausage or chorizo! Cheese Options: You can change up the cheese as desired. Monterey Jack, Pepper Jack, or cheddar cheese would be great choices! Toppings: Serve the bubble up breakfast casserole with some yummy toppings, like salsa, hot sauce, green onions, avocado, and extra cheese!

In the Refrigerator: Keep leftovers in an airtight container or covered tightly with plastic wrap. Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Reheating: Reheat in the microwave 30 seconds at a time, until steaming. Or heat in the oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-15 minutes. Prepare Ahead: Prepare everything through the middle of step 6. Instead of pouring the egg mixture over the biscuits, cover both the egg mixture and the baking dish with plastic wrap and keep in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Just before baking stir the egg mixture well and pour it over the biscuits and meat and top with the cheese. Bake as directed. In the Freezer: Freeze bubble up breakfast casserole by making it in a freezer-safe baking dish and covering it well with plastic wrap and then a couple of layers of aluminum foil. Before baking, let the casserole thaw at room temperature for 2-3 hours. Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 35-40 minutes.
