What Makes This Savory Bread Pudding So Fantastic

If you're looking for a quick, easy and unbelievably delicious breakfast/brunch recipe, you've come to the right place. This Savory Bread Pudding takes all the things you love about a good breakfast casserole and packs it all into one deliciously savory dish.

It's packed full of eggs, ham, cheese and sourdough bread and is baked to absolute perfection.

I don't know about you, but when it comes to breakfast, the easier the recipe the better. Simplicity is exactly what I had in mind when I came up with this Savory Bread Pudding recipe, and it's truly one of the easiest breakfast bakes I've ever made.

The hardest part of the recipe is whisking the eggs, and then you just dump the eggs along with the rest of the ingredients into a pan, give it a quick stir and throw it in the oven.

Make-Ahead Breakfast

If you're not a morning person and don't feel like having to mix everything for breakfast, you can just prepare the dish the night before.

Simply prepare the mixture the day before, refrigerate overnight and throw it in the oven the next morning. I find this particularly helpful for Thanksgiving or Christmas Breakfasts when there is so much real cooking going on that I really don't think people should be asking for breakfast at all!

This Savory Bread Pudding is a lazy breakfast at its best without compromising on taste. Now let's get to cooking this delicious egg bake!

How To Make Savory Bread Pudding

1. Grease a 12-inch heatproof skillet and set aside.
2. Preheat oven to 350F.
3. Whisk together the eggs, half and half (or milk), salt and pepper. Stir in bread, ham, and cheese.
4. Pour the mixture into the greased pan and set it in the oven.
5. Bake for 40 minutes until a knife inserted comes out clean.
6. Serve with hot sauce.

Tips And Tricks For Making Savory Bread Pudding

• You can save time by preparing the dish the night before you plan on eating it. Simply prepare the mixture the day before, refrigerate overnight and throw it in the oven the next morning.
• You can freeze the uncooked, assembled savory bread pudding ingredients and cook them another day, making it a great meal prep recipe.
• Make sure you've greased the skillet well, otherwise you'll have trouble getting the slices out of the skillet.
