I’ve made this multiple times for work meetings! I’ve always done it in the crock pot, but wanted to know if I could do it in a disposable foil pan in the oven instead? If so, how does that affect cooking time?
I’m so glad you have had great success with this as a crock pot recipe! I do think it could be made in the oven, but we haven’t tried making this in the oven, so I don’t know the cooking temperature or cooking time. If you give it a try, let us know how it goes. I am sure other readers would love to know as well!
Would lactaid milk work in this recipe in place of the heavy cream?
Hi Lisa!
I have never made anything with lactaid milk, so I do not know how it would do in this recipe. If you give it a try, please let us know how it goes!
Aunt Lou
Thank you, very good video.
Love this recipe. Make it for Thanksgiving brunch. It is a family favorite.
So glad to hear this, Sheryl! We love it too!
I need to make the recipe for a large crowd at work! Can I triple the recipe?
Hi Jeanette-
I would not triple it in the same pot because it will be hard for the center to set. I would make it in multiple slow cookers. Hope that helps! Enjoy!
Can you cut this recipe in half? Do you still cook the same time for it too?
Hi Nancy-
You can cut the recipe in half and cook in a smaller slow cooker. If you choose to cook it in a 6 quart, the results will likely be less fluffy and definitely take less time to cook. Think of it similarly to using half a cake mix in the oven in the same size pan.Hope that helps!
I will use a smaller SC, but is the time the same or less?
Thank you.
The cooking time should be similar, but I would keep an eye on it the first time you make it because all slow cookers cook differently. Enjoy!
Would this recipe work in a casserole crockpot too?
Hi Cathy-
I haven’t tested this recipe in my casserole crock, but it should work. It may not be as fluffy as it is in a traditional slow cooker, but it should do fine. I find that my egg casseroles typically turn out a little flatter in the casserole crock when I test them. Hope that helps.
Fixed this for a work brunch today. Easy and delicious!!!! THANK YOU for my new low carb, go to, breakfast casserole. 🙂
Hi Dawn-
So glad to hear you enjoyed it!! It is one of our favorites too!
Can this be mixed together in the crockpot and then put in the refrigerator overnight and cooked in the morning?
Yep! You may have to cook it a little longer, but it should be fine.
I have made this many times before I saw your video. But I started with a bag of frozen cubed hash-browns, then pored the egg mixture over it… Very good…
What is the difference between Slow Cooker and Crock Pot?
I enjoy your recipes, but since I don’t have a Slow Cooker, I don’t try some of the ones that interest me.
Hi Ruth!
We use the terms crock pot and slow cooker interchangeably on this site. Crock-Pot is a brand name of slow cooker, but you can make any slow cooker or crock pot recipe in any brand. Hope that helps! Happy cRockin’!
