How to Make Ham Egg Casserole

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Spray a 9x13 inch casserole dish with non-stick cooking spray.
  3. Trim crusts from 6 slices of bread and cut into 1-inch cubes. Place bread cubes in the bottom of the prepared casserole dish.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/2 cup evaporated milk until well combined.
  5. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the bread cubes, ensuring they are moistened.
  6. Sprinkle 1 1/2 cups diced cooked ham evenly over the egg mixture.
  7. Cover the casserole dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 5 hours, or preferably overnight.
  8. Remove casserole from refrigerator 30 minutes before baking. Sprinkle 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese over the top.
  9. Bake for 20-22 minutes, or until the casserole is set and the cheese is melted and lightly golden brown. Cooking time may vary depending on your oven and casserole dish depth. Check for doneness with a toothpick inserted into the center – it should come out clean.
  10. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
