Frequently Asked Questions

How long can you keep a breakfast casserole in the fridge before baking?

A breakfast casserole can be kept in the fridge before baking for up to 24-48 hours.

Do you freeze breakfast casseroles before or after baking?

Freezing breakfast casseroles can be done both before and after baking. Freezing before baking allows you to have a ready-to-bake casserole on hand for busy mornings. On the other hand, freezing after baking allows you to have fully cooked casseroles that can be reheated whenever needed. Choose the method that works best for your schedule and enjoy the convenience of make-ahead breakfast casseroles.

Can you eat leftover breakfast casserole?

Yes, you can absolutely eat leftover breakfast casserole! It’s a convenient and delicious option for enjoying breakfast on busy mornings or as a quick meal throughout the day. Just make sure to store it properly in an airtight container in the refrigerator, and when you’re ready to eat, simply reheat it in the microwave or oven for a warm and satisfying meal.

How do you fix a soggy casserole?

To fix a soggy casserole, you can try placing it back in the oven at a low temperature to help evaporate any excess moisture. Alternatively, you can also try removing the casserole from its dish and transferring it to a baking sheet, then bake it for a few more minutes to crisp up the bottom.

How far in advance can you make breakfast casserole?

You can make breakfast casserole up to 24-48 hours in advance. It’s best to prepare it the night before, cover it tightly, and refrigerate it until you’re ready to bake it in the morning. This allows the flavors to meld together and saves you time on busy mornings.
