Ham and Cheese Breakfast Bake

Preheat oven to 350ºF. Spray a 13×9 inch pan with nonstick spray. Slice French bread into 1/2″ thick slices. Set aside.

Fry slices of bacon, let cool and then chop into small pieces. Set aside.

In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs and milk until evenly combined. Shred cheddar cheese, or other cheese of your choice, and set aside.

In the 13×9 pan, layer 1 slice of French bread on its end, placing 2 slices of ham next to it. Sprinkle on cheese. Layer another slice of French bread next to cheese and ham, like a sandwich standing on its end. Repeat process until all of bread, ham and cheese has been layered. Sprinkle chopped bacon on top. Pour milk/eggs mixture over the top of the whole pan of bread/ham/cheese.

Place in oven for 40-45 minutes or until egg is cooked through. Remove from oven and let rest for 15 minutes. Slice and serve.
