Canadian Bacon Strata image

Posting this for ZWT 2006 (Canadian Region) this is delicious. Is it an omelet? Is it a bread pudding? Who cares?! It is cheesy with a wonderful ham flavor and such a good comfort food not to mention easy.

Time 1h40m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 English muffins, split, toasted and cut in half
1/2 lb sliced Canadian bacon, about 10 slices, halved
1 1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1/3 cup finely shredded parmesan cheese
8 large eggs
3 cups milk or 3 cups half-and-half
1 1/2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
salt and pepper
1/2-1 teaspoon hot sauce

Steps:

  • Butter a 2 quart shallow baking dish; set aside. In dish, alternately arrange muffin halves and Canadian Bacon; sprinkle with cheeses; set aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, mustard, 1/2 teaspoons salt,
  • pepper to taste and hot sauce until combined; pour over muffins and bacon.
  • Cover tightly with plastic wrap; refrigerate 2 hours to overnight for an especially custardy consistency (makes it great for ahead of time preparation).
  • Preheat oven to 350ºF.
  • Place baking dish on a rimmed baking sheet; remove plastic wrap; bake until puffed and set in the center or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean; about 1 1/2 hours.
  • Tent loosely with foil if strata starts to brown too quickly; let stand 10 minutes before cutting and serving.
