The key to this dish lies in selecting the right ingredients—fresh eggs, quality ham, and a good English muffin really make all the difference. I always choose organic eggs when possible, and I like to use a freshly baked English muffin or even day-old bread for that perfect texture soak. For the hollandaise, I prefer making it fresh, but store-bought works in a pinch. I’ve also experimented with smoked salmon instead of ham, which my family adored!

  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 4 English muffins, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 8 ounces cooked ham, diced
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 cup hollandaise sauce (homemade or store-bought)
  • Fresh chives or parsley for garnish (optional)

Substitution tip: If you want to lighten it up, swap whole milk for 2% or use turkey bacon instead of ham for a leaner option.

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper until fully combined.
  3. Add the English muffin pieces, diced ham, and shredded cheddar cheese to the egg mixture. Gently toss to coat everything evenly.
  4. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
  5. Bake uncovered for 35-40 minutes, or until the casserole is set and slightly golden on top. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.
  6. Remove the casserole from the oven and generously spoon the hollandaise sauce over the top.
  7. Return to the oven for an additional 5 minutes to warm the sauce.
  8. Garnish with chopped fresh chives or parsley before serving.

Pro tip: I like to let the casserole rest for 5 minutes after baking so the flavors can settle, and it’s easier to slice.
