Breakfast Casserole Strata Cake!
Something different but you know its going to be tasty right?!
All the breakfast essentials!
you’re able to also easily switch bacon for ham.
Also, bonus if its stale bread because it holds its form better once soaked in the egg mixture.
However fresh works just fine too.
The bread used in the recipe video and photos is fresh.
Slice / tear breadinto 2.5cm / 1 pieces.
Leave the crust on unless youre using a really thick-crusted bread.
Nobody wants super-thick, chewy crust inside when its supposed to be soft and custardy!
I cant give you a weight because different breads differ in weight for the same volume.
Cup measurements are the best way I can describe it!
Check with a skewer inserted into the centre to ensure no raw egg mixture is on it.
The smell when this is baking is mouth-watering!
Customisation options
A very appealing feature of this recipe is that its highly customisable.
Garlic butter roasted mushroomswould be particular great and also fitting for breakfast.
Think flaked smoked mackerel, herring/kippers or hot-smoked trout.
Regular cold-smoked salmon would also work itll cook in the strata because its thin and become hot-smoked delicious!
Spinach Make mygarlic sauteed spinach, chop roughly and distribute before baking.
Breakfast sausages Remove skin, break into small pieces, pan-fry as per bacon.
Olives, sun dried tomatoes and other antipasto-jot down things.
