Notes
For a more buttery flavor, you can use cooked biscuit dough in place of french bread.
Want to add more veggies to your meals? Try throwing in some tomatoes, spinach, and bell peppers (green peppers are my personal favorite for this recipe).
No bundt pan? Use a casserole dish or loaf pan instead. Be sure to adjust the cooking time and frequently check on your dish, to make sure you’re not undercooking or overcooking.
Allowing your breakfast casserole to cool for 20 - 25 minutes before trying to remove it from the pan is going to give you the best results.
Once you’ve done this, you can flip it onto a serving tray, and let it cool down to room temperature for the perfect bundt pan shape.
A sweet bundt cake can be made by using Hawaiian sweet rolls - I recommend adding in a little orange zest to this mixture as well.
