Eating apancake breakfast sandwichis a flavor experience every salty-sweet-loving human deserves.
c’mon join me in observing the sacred union of BEC and pancake batter in casserole matrimony.
A BEC pancake bake packs all of the flavors of a complete breakfast in a satisfying slice.
Its an impressive behemoth for a brunch party, or a clever way to prep your workweek breakfast.
In practice, the casserole had plans of its own.
I still got the layers, but the pancake batter and egg switched places.
Pancake batter includes baking soda, which gets busy making bubbles as soon as liquid is mixed in.
This means the batter quickly becomes lighter than the egg as it sits.
The dense egg sinks to the bottom and the fluffy pancake batter rises up.
Ibaked the baconto a chewy state, but you might use a frying pan or themicrowaveif it suits you.
Cook the bacon until its just shy of the way you like it.
Once the bacon is cooked, chop the meat into bite sized pieces.
Whisk the eggs in a measuring cup or bowl with salt and pepper.
Butter a casserole dish.
I used a shallow eight by eleven-inch Pyrex.
Once youve prepped all that, youre ready to mix the pancake batter.
I made the batter a little thicker by using a tad less water.
Pour the batter into the buttered casserole dish and spread it out evenly.
Pour the whisked eggs over the batter.
Sprinkle the cheese and chopped bacon over the top.
Bake it in a 375F oven for 20-25 minutes, or until puffed and browned on top.
Drizzle with maple syrup if desired (and you should desire it).
Cover and store in the fridge for up to five days.
Butter a medium-sized casserole dish.
Whisk the eggs, salt, and pepper in a bowl or measuring cup.
In a separate bowl, whisk the boxed pancake mix with water until combined.
A few small lumps are okay.
Pour the pancake mix into the casserole dish, and spread it out evenly.
Pour the whisked eggs over the pancake mix, and sprinkle the cheese and bacon over the top.
Bake at 375F for 20-25 minutes, or until puffed in the center and browned.
