Description

Breakfast bundt cake brings together classic morning flavors in a delightful circular masterpiece. Maple, brown sugar, and cinnamon create a comforting morning treat you’ll savor with each memorable bite.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 large eggs
  • 2 cups (473 ml) shredded cheese
  • 1 can Pillsbury biscuits
  • 2 cups (473 ml) O’Brien-style frozen hash browns
  • 6 oz (170 g) Canadian bacon
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) whole milk
  • Salt (to taste)
  • Black pepper (to taste)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the oven by heating to 400°F, creating an ideal baking environment for the breakfast cake.
  2. Transform Canadian bacon into precise, small cubes using a sharp knife to ensure uniform distribution.
  3. Divide each biscuit into four equal segments, promoting consistent texture throughout the cake.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, blend eggs and milk until smooth and fully integrated.
  5. Introduce frozen O’Brien hash browns into the egg mixture, stirring to create an even dispersion.
  6. Gradually incorporate diced Canadian bacon and shredded cheese, mixing thoroughly after each addition.
  7. Gently fold biscuit pieces into the mixture, maintaining a light and airy consistency.
  8. Liberally spray a bundt pan with non-stick cooking spray to prevent potential sticking.
  9. Transfer the entire mixture into the prepared bundt pan, smoothing the surface for even baking.
  10. Cover the pan with aluminum foil to protect from excessive browning during the one-hour baking process.
  11. Remove from the oven once eggs are set and the top displays a light golden hue, allowing residual heat to complete cooking.
  12. Let the cake rest briefly in the pan before carefully inverting onto a serving platter.
  13. Slice and serve warm, presenting a delectable breakfast centerpiece that combines multiple morning favorites.

Notes

  • Customize the texture by adjusting biscuit piece sizes, creating either more dense or lighter cake-like consistency depending on personal preference.
  • Swap Canadian bacon with turkey bacon or vegetarian bacon bits for a leaner or meat-free alternative that maintains similar flavor profiles.
  • Experiment with different cheese varieties like sharp cheddar, pepper jack, or goat cheese to transform the cake’s overall taste and complexity.
  • Use fresh hash browns instead of frozen for a more crisp and homemade texture, though cooking time might slightly vary with fresh ingredients.
