The biscuits soak up all of the rich custard overnight, creating a fluffy, savory bread pudding when you pull it out of the oven. It’s like a strata with Southern charm!

An overnight egg bake with biscuits and ham. Toss the ingredients together the night before then bake it for 10 minutes in the morning.

Ingredients
  

  • 10.6 ounces about 2 cups diced ham
  • 8 biscuits cooked, cooled, and cubed (about 8 cups total)*
  • 2 cups 8 ounces shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/3 cup chopped scallions
  • 1 jar 4 ounces diced pimientos, drained
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • 8 large eggs
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • Pinch of grated nutmeg
  • Fresh herbs for garnish

Instructions

  • Spray a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, stir together ham, cubed biscuits, cheese, scallions, pimientos, ½ teaspoon of salt, and ÂĽ teaspoon of pepper. Transfer to the prepared baking dish.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, nutmeg, remaining ½ teaspoon of salt and remaining ÂĽ teaspoon of pepper. Pour the egg mixture over the biscuit mixture. Use your hands or a spoon to gently combine the biscuits with the eggs to make sure that everything is nicely coated. You want the biscuits to absorb the liquid.
  • Cover casserole and refrigerate for at least one hour (or up to overnight).
  • Before baking, allow the casserole to sit on the counter and come to room temperature for about 20 minutes while you preheat the oven.
  • If the casserole has been sitting overnight, I like to give everything a gentle stir in the dish to make sure that all of the biscuits are coated with the egg mixture before it goes in the oven.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F/180°C.
  • Bake, uncovered, for 45-50 minutes (until eggs are set and top is golden brown). Garnish with fresh herbs just before serving.

Notes

*I used a 16-ounce can of refrigerated Immaculate brand Organic Flaky Biscuits.

  1. What a pretty egg bake! I’m always looking for new brunch recipes, especially ones that can be ready in no time. This sure looks like a crowd pleaser! Love the ham in here!

    1. Thanks so much, Gayle! I love brunch recipes, and you can’t go wrong with this combination of ingredients!

  2. Ooh this looks so good! I’ll have to make some biscuits to try this as Jesse would LOVE it! Or I wonder what it’d be like with cornbread! Hmmm!

  3. I saw Southern and was immediately excited. This sounds so good, and I like one of the commenters ideas about cornbread as well. I love the fact that you can get this ready the night before, it really saves time in the AM.

    1. That’s a great idea, Madeleine! Let me know if you give it a try. I haven’t done it that way, so I don’t know how long it will take or how it compares to the original recipe. 🙂
