Description
A straightforward recipe for a baked casserole using ham, cheese, and bread.
Ingredients
Scale
- 6 slices bread, cubed
- 1 cup cooked ham, diced
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 large eggs
- 2 cups milk
- 1 teaspoon dry mustard powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease an 8×8 inch baking dish.
- Spread the cubed bread evenly in the prepared baking dish.
- Sprinkle the diced ham and shredded cheese over the bread layer.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, dry mustard powder, salt, and pepper.
- Pour the egg mixture evenly over the bread, ham, and cheese in the baking dish.
- Let the casserole stand for 15 minutes so the bread can absorb the liquid.
- Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the casserole is set and lightly golden brown on top.
- Let it cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
- You can use Swiss or Monterey Jack cheese instead of cheddar for a different flavor.
- For a richer taste, use half-and-half instead of milk.
