Directions
New York Breakfast Casserole, Adapted from Deb Perelman’s wonderful ‘The Smitten Kitchen Cookbook’ Bagels and cream cheese make me reminisce about Collegetown Bagels in Ithaca, New York; I rarely enjoy them now because of the carbs/calories, but found this casserole to be worth it Gooey on the bottom, crusty on top – yum The prep and cook times do not include overnight chilling, , I love it! I substituted out 4 bagels for slices of local Watsonville sourdough, and since my bagels and bread were plain added a bunch of dried herbs used my suegro’s (father-in-law’s) garden tomatoes and threw in a bit of kale- voila! Super happy with the taste- even without bacon, lox or capers Deelish! Cant wait to share it with the fam when they wake up;), I substituted out 4 bagels for slices of local Watsonville sourdough, and since my bagels and bread were plain added a bunch of dried herbs used my suegro’s (father-in-law’s) garden tomatoes and threw in a bit of kale No bacon, lox or capers, not because I don’t love all three just dont have them this time around!

the Next Morning, Preheat Oven to 350 Degrees. Remove Casserole from the Fridge, Uncover and Bake Until Casserole Has Puffed, Turned Golden Brown and Cooked Through. (a Knife Inserted Into the Center of the Casserole and Rotated Slightly Should not Release Any Liquid.) This Will Take About an Hour. You May Cover the Pan With Foil For the Last 15-20 Minutes If the Top Bagels Are Getting Too Brown For Your Liking. |
