Egg casserole

An egg casserole is a dish made with eggs, milk, bread, and other ingredients, usually baked in a baking dish. It is a popular breakfast and brunch dish in the United States.

The earliest known recipes for egg casseroles appeared in the 19th century. One of the earliest recipes was published in The Boston Cooking-School Cook Book (1896) by Fannie Merritt Farmer. This recipe, called "Egg Casserole No. 1," called for eggs, milk, bread crumbs, and butter.

Other early recipes for egg casseroles appeared in cookbooks such as The Boston Globe Cook Book (1904) and The New York Times Cook Book (1906). These recipes typically called for eggs, milk, bread crumbs, and either sausage or ham.

Advice

Making an egg casserole is an easy and delicious way to serve breakfast or brunch to your family and friends. To make a delicious egg casserole, start by preheating your oven to 350 degrees and lightly greasing a 9x13 inch baking dish. Then, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper in a bowl and pour the mixture into the baking dish. Add any desired vegetables, meats, or cheese and mix together. Finally, bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the eggs are cooked through and the casserole is golden brown. Enjoy!
