Breakfast Casseroles Booklet

Breakfast casseroles save the author time in the mornings when cooking for a large crowd. She makes two casseroles at a time and stores them unbaked in the fridge. In the morning, a child takes one out and bakes it, having a hot breakfast ready by 7:30am with no effort from the author. The document provides recipes for four breakfast casseroles: baked oatmeal, pumpkin custard, French toast casserole, and Amish breakfast casserole. All can be made ahead and stored before baking.

Breakfast Casseroles

By Carolyn Thomas
Breakfast Casseroles

Breakfast casseroles save my mornings!

You see, I’m not really a breakfast person. I start to get naturally
hungry around 11am. But I am responsible to feed a large crowd of
people who are ravenous by 7:00am. This can be a bad
combination. Enter my secret weapon... breakfast casseroles.

We make two of these at a time and put them unbaked in the fridge. A
child pulls one of them out at about 6:30am and pops them into a not-
preheated oven. We have a hot, hearty breakfast on the table before
7:30am and I didn’t even have to think about food. Win – Win!

With the exception of the pumpkin custard, all of these are very
flexible, as far as ingredients are concerned. Try different meats and
veggies in the Amish breakfast casserole, and different fruits and
seasonings in the French Toast Casserole and the Baked
Oatmeal. Every combination we’ve tried is delicious.

Here’s to easier mornings!

Love,
Carolyn
