The creamy hollandaise sauce gives this casserole a cheesy taste and texture without any actual cheese. This sauce is amazing because it really goes great with anything and is exploding with flavor. A lot of people get intimidated by this sauce, but it only takes a few ingredients and is super simple to make.

How To Make Hollandaise Sauce

  • You can make this sauce by using a blender or an immersion blender.
  • Melt the ghee in the microwave for about 30-40 seconds. This ghee needs to be hot and not just warm.
  • Combine the egg yolks, lemon juice, Franks Hot Sauce, salt and cayenne pepper into a high powered blender. Blend for 10 seconds. (If you are using an immersion blender, add the ingredients to a wide mouth mason jar and blend for 10 seconds).
  • Slowly pour in the hot ghee into the mixture as the blender is running on medium speed.

Casserole Quick Tips:

  • Sautรฉ the veggies: Sautรฉ the asparagus, onion and garlic before adding it to the eggs. This adds a ton of flavor and texture to the eggs.
  • Make it ahead of time. Feel free to make the egg mixture ahead. Add the egg mixture to a baking dish and cover and add to the fridge. Remove and add to the oven when ready to eat.
  • Make into muffins: If you want to make these into mini muffins, feel free to add the mixture to muffin tins instead of a casserole dish.
  • Meal Prep:This is a perfect meal prep option. Make this casserole on Sunday and cut into square size servings and use as breakfast and lunch meals throughout the week.

  • Heat a medium skillet over medium-high heat with olive oil.ย 
  • Add the minced garlic, chopped onion, 3 slices bacon, chopped and asparagus chunks to the skillet.ย 
  • Sautรฉ together for around 4-5 minutes or until tender
  • Meanwhile, in a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and coconut milk and season very liberally with salt and black pepper (about 1 tsp salt and 3/4 tsp black pepper)
  • Transfer the sauteรฉd veggies into the beaten eggs and whisk together until combined.

  • Note: If you do not have anย immersion blender, do all of the steps with a regularย blender.

    How well will this heat up? Would this work for meal prepping?

    1. Ashley McCrary says:

      Hi Shirley……..don’t think I’ve tried reheating this or using in meal prep. If you choose to try this and have great results, I would so appreciate you getting back to me so I can share in the blog. Have a great weekend!!

    This is amazing. We just made it for the week. Used ham since we had it leftover and a little extra lemon in the sauce because we love it lemony. It is SO good. This will definitely go into the meal planning rotation – definitely a different type of breakfast casserole.

    1. Ashley McCrary says:

      So happy to hear this. Thank you

    Hi. Thank you for sharing this recipe! Iโ€™m excited to make it. Iโ€™m curious about pan size. It says 8×8 or 9×13. Do you make a bigger amount to use a 9×13 or what do you suggest I guess! ๐Ÿ˜€

    1. Ashley McCrary says:

      This recipe will work in either container. Of course it will be thicker in the 8×8, but will still work in a 9×13
