Ingredients for Bundt Pan Bacon Egg
Here’s what you’ll need to make this delicious brunch bread:
- 5 large eggs – The foundation of your scrambled eggs.
- 1/4 cup milk – For a creamier texture in the scrambled eggs.
- 1/2 tsp salt – Enhances the flavors of the eggs and dough.
- 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper – Adds a bit of spice and flavor to the eggs.
- 3 cups self-rising flour – The base of your biscuit dough.
- 2 1/4 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese, divided – Adds a cheesy kick in every bite.
- 10-12 slices bacon, cooked and finely crumbled – Provides the crispy bacon flavor.
- 2 1/4 cups heavy cream – Used to bind the dough and make it rich and moist.
- 2 Tbsp butter, melted – Adds a golden, buttery finish to the bread.
- 1 tsp chopped fresh chives – For a fresh, herbal touch to finish.
Step-by-Step Instructions for Bundt Pan Bacon Egg
1. Prepare the Bundt Pan
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Generously spray a standard 10-12 cup Bundt pan with cooking spray and set aside. This step is essential to prevent the bread from sticking to the pan and making it easier to remove once baked.
2. Scramble the Eggs
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Scramble the eggs in a skillet over medium heat until they are just loosely firm, then remove them from heat and set them aside to cool.
3. Make the Biscuit Dough
In another medium-sized bowl, mix self-rising flour, 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, and 1/2 cup crumbled bacon using a fork. Create a well in the center and pour in the heavy cream. Gradually mix the cream into the dry ingredients with the fork until the dough is just moistened. You want the dough to be soft but not too wet.
4. Assemble the Bread
Sprinkle 2 Tbsp reserved bacon and 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese evenly at the bottom of the Bundt pan. Then, using an ice cream scoop or a 1/4-1/3 cup measuring cup, scoop half of the biscuit dough into the Bundt pan. Flatten and spread the dough with a spoon or offset spatula.
Top the dough layer with 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese, the scrambled eggs, the remaining bacon crumbles, and then another layer of 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese.
Scoop the remaining biscuit dough on top, spreading it slightly to cover the filling evenly.
5. Bake the Brunch Bread
Place the Bundt pan into the preheated oven and bake for 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the dough comes out clean. The bread should be golden and crispy on top.
6. Finish and Serve
Let the bread rest in the pan for 5-10 minutes before turning it out onto a cake plate or serving platter. While it’s resting, mix together melted butter and chopped chives. Brush the mixture over the entire bread for a golden finish and a burst of fresh flavor.
Slice the bread with a sharp knife and serve! This dish pairs wonderfully with a side of Spinach Mushroom Ricotta Zucchini Boats or a fresh Watermelon Salad with Cucumber and Feta for a light and refreshing meal.
Tips for the Perfect Bundt Pan Bacon Egg
- Don’t Overmix the Dough: You want to mix the dough just until it’s moistened. Overmixing can result in a dense, tough texture.
- Use Room Temperature Ingredients: For the best results, make sure your eggs, milk, and butter are at room temperature before mixing.
- Make It Ahead: You can prepare the dough and filling the night before, then bake it in the morning for a quick and easy brunch.
- Add Extra Veggies: Want to sneak in some veggies? Add some Spinach Mushroom Ricotta Zucchini Boats to the filling or alongside this bread for extra flavor.
