Bring out the Fluffy Loaded Breakfast Bake & Easy Quick Gooey Cinnamon Rolls for this year's Holiday brunch or breakfast for your family and friends. I've included this breakfast bake as a special recipe we love to go without cinnamon rolls!
If you love eggs with your cinnamon rolls, here's an awesome Loaded Egg Breakfast Bake that you'll love!! This egg bake recipe is wonderful because it goes along great with so many other sides like bacon, pancakes, French toast, etc., as well. Great for baking on the weekends and eating it throughout the week for breakfast is also a great option we do often.
My husband is the Breakfast King around this castle. He & our son, Derek loves all things breakfast. My mom is the same way, except she would eat it for every meal. 😉
This creamy, cheesy egg loaded breakfast bake is full of protein for the fact, it's loaded with diced tomatoes, mushrooms, onion, green pepper, browned ham, butter, fresh eggs, cheese and 2 secret ingredients!
- BisQuick helps make it fluffy and gives it a nice texture.
- The other secret weapon is using Egg Beaters. You still use 9 eggs, but you also use Egg Beaters, which are made from egg whites. They contain the same quality protein in shelled eggs, but with way less calories and zero fat or cholesterol.
If you love LOVE...well then, give these two family favorites a try!

If I make the Breakfast bake in a large muffin pan how long should I bake them?
Kim Lange says
Do you mean you want to make them like muffins, like a 12 muffin tin pan? I'd say 20-25 minutes. 🙂 Hope you enjoy!
