21 Easy Christmas Breakfast Casseroles to Make Ahead (or the Morning Of)

Christmas morning breakfast needs to be something special—but not too fussy. You probably don't want to be attempting a perfect poached egg, or stuck tending the griddle for an hour instead of opening Christmas gifts.

Enter the Christmas breakfast casserole. The best breakfast casseroles for Christmas day can be assembled (or at least, prepped) the night before, so Christmas morning, all you have to do is preheat the oven and pop it in (or better yet, program the slow cooker to get it baked while you sleep). Add a fruit salad or a side of sausage, and a festive Christmas breakfast is served. Read on for great ideas for Christmas breakfast casseroles to enjoy this December 25.
