Creamy Broccoli Bacon Bake Recipes

CREAMY BROCCOLI CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 180C/350F.
• Mix Topping ingredients in a bowl with a pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute until it smells incredible.
• Add flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
• While whisking, slowly pour in half the milk. Once fully incorporated, whisk in the remaining milk plus the chicken broth.
• Cook for 4 to 5 minutes, whisking every now and then and more towards the end, until the sauce thickens so that it coats the back of a wooden spoon and when you draw your finger across it, the path stays (see video).
• Turn off heat, add cheeses, stir in (don't worry if it doesn't melt fully). Then do a taste test and add a bit of salt if required.
• Add broccoli and stir well to coat.
• Pour into a casserole dish, pat down to fill. Sprinkle over Topping, cover with foil then bake for 25 minutes.
• Remove foil and bake for a further 20 minutes until the topping is deep golden and the broccoli is tender.
• Stand for 5 minutes before serving.

• Transfer to preheated oven and cook for 12-15 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and the broccoli is cooked to desired doneness. Serve as a side or eat as a main meal!

BACON CHEDDAR BROCCOLI BAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350F.
• Cook the bacon until crispy. Drain and then crumble. Set aside.
• Steam the broccoli until almost tender. They should seem a little undercooked.
• Melt the butter in a medium saucepan. Add the flour and stir until thoroughly mixed. Add in the cream cheese and stir until melted.
• Add the milk and spices. Stir until well heated but do not bring to a boil as that might scald the milk.
• Stir in 1 cup of the grated cheese and remove from the heat.
• Dump the broccoli in a 13x9 baking dish. Pour the cheese mixture over the broccoli. Sprinkle bacon (minus about 2 tablespoons) and sliced green onions (minus about 2 tablespoons). Gently fold so that the broccoli is coated in the cheese mixture and the bacon and green onions are mixed throughout.
• Evenly spread the broccoli in the baking sheet. Sprinkle remaining cheddar cheese, bacon and green onions on top.
• Bake for about 20 minutes or until bubbly and the cheese is melted

BROCCOLI BACON QUICHE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F. Roll your dough into the 9-inch pie plate, pressing it to fit into the plate, and decorate the edges. Line the pie dough with parchment paper, cover the bottom and the sides, then fill with pie weights (I usually use dried beans). Bake with the pie weights for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and carefully remove the pie weights/beans and parchment paper. Prick the bottom of the pie crust with a fork to prevent bubbling and return to the oven for an additional 5 minutes, or until the bottom is dry. Remove from oven and place on a wire cooling rack while you make the filling.
• In a large skillet, cook the chopped bacon until crisp. Remove and let cool on a paper towel. In the same skillet (you can remove bacon grease), add broccoli and cook over medium heat until broccoli begins to soften (about 5-10 minutes). Set aside to cool.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
• Sprinkle the chopped bacon, broccoli, and 1/2 cup of cheese on the bottom of the pie crust. Then pour the egg mixture over top. Finish with the other 1/2 cup of cheese.
• Place in oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the center is set and no longer wiggly & the eggs are cooked through. See notes below about crust browning.
• Let it cool for about 15 minutes before slicing, or refrigerate for up to 5 days and enjoy later!
