Overnight Corn Flake Breakfast Pie
(6 servings)
- 1/2 cup corn flakes cereal - crunched up
-
8 slices bacon - cooked and crumbled
-
5 large eggs
-
2 and 1/2 cups frozen hash brown potatoes
-
1 and 1/2 cups shredded Swiss cheese
-
1/2 cup cottage cheese
-
1/3 cup milk
-
1 green onion - chopped
-
1 teaspoon pepper
-
4 drops liquid pepper sauce or Tabasco sauce
Note: After you fry your bacon, save 1 Tablespoon of the drippings.
Mix the crunched-up corn flakes with 1 Tablespoon bacon drippings; set aside.
In a medium bowl, beat the eggs until foamy. Stir in all remaining ingredients. Pour into a greased 9-inch round pan. Sprinkle corn flake mixture on top. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
Remove pan from refrigerator. Uncover and bake at 350 degrees F for about 50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
Trivia:: In 1907, an ad campaigns for Kellogg's Corn Flakes offered a free box of cereal to every woman who would wink at her grocer.
This breakfast casserole has it all: bacon, eggs, hash browns, cheese, onion and... best of all, a top layer of bacon-infused crushed corn flakes.
Mr Breakfast would like to thank CornFlake for this recipe.
