Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

    Prepare the Casserole Base:

      - In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until well combined.

        - Stir in the Swiss cheese and diced ham (or Canadian bacon).

          Combine with English Muffins:

            - In a greased 9x13-inch casserole dish, layer the toasted English muffin cubes evenly across the bottom.

              - Pour the egg mixture over the English muffin cubes, ensuring all muffin pieces are well-coated.

                - Gently press the mixture down to ensure it's compacted.

                  Bake the Casserole:

                    - Cover the casserole with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes.

                      - After 30 minutes, remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is lightly golden.

                        Prepare the Hollandaise Sauce:

                          - While the casserole is baking, melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat.

                            - In a medium bowl, whisk egg yolks and lemon juice together until thick and pale (about 2 minutes).

                              - Gradually drizzle in the melted butter while continuously whisking until you achieve the desired creamy consistency. Season with salt and cayenne pepper to taste. Keep warm.

                                Serve the Casserole:

                                  - Once the casserole is out of the oven, let it cool for a few minutes. Cut into squares for serving.

                                    - Drizzle the warm Hollandaise sauce over each serving and garnish with fresh chives.

                                      Enjoy! Your delicious Eggs Benedict Casserole is ready to be served. Perfect for brunch or a special breakfast gathering!
