Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Gather your ingredients and baking dish.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and Dijon mustard until well combined and frothy.
  3. Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. Arrange quartered English muffins in the bottom, layer with Canadian bacon, then pour custard mixture over and top with shredded cheddar cheese.
  4. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes. This helps the casserole set.
  5. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until golden brown on top.
