Biscuit Breakfast Casserole Make Ahead Instructions:
If you want to assemble this casserole the night before, cover it with foil and refrigerate it overnight before popping it in the oven to bake. You can keep it in the fridge for up to 48 hours. It’s a great way to get breakfast ready beforehand, so you don’t have to do much work the next morning, especially for a holiday morning.
When you’re ready to bake it, remove the pan from the fridge when the oven is preheating to let it come to room temperature a bit. It may take a couple extra minutes to bake if it is kept in the fridge overnight to make sure the center gets cooked totally through.
How to Store Leftover Biscuit Breakfast Casserole?
If you have any leftovers, cover up the rest of the pan with foil, or transfer the pieces to an airtight container and keep it in the fridge for up to 3-4 days. Reheat the leftovers in the oven or microwave until warm and enjoy!
