I am terrible about getting up in the morning those first few weeks back to school. The last thing I want to do is go into the kitchen to fix a warm breakfast. If I don’t plan ahead, my son ends up with breakfast bars and morningstar bacon. I try to make sure I always have a casserole that we can just throw in the microwave. I originally had this Apple Strata casserole years ago at a book club. It is so easy to throw together and can be made in the oven or the crockpot. I love waking up and having a hot breakfast waiting for me in the crockpot. The original recipe calls for bacon, but I have used sausage before too.

 I start with two apple turnovers. You can find them in the freezer section, in the refrigerated section with the biscuits, or in the bakery section. I usually can find some on clearance in the bakery section. I slice up the apple turnovers in long strips and then add them to the crockpot. Make sure you spray your dish first with a cooking spray. It makes the Strata come out easy.Then I add 4 strips of cooked bacon that have been crumbled to the the crockpot.

I then add two cups of shredded cheddar cheese on top of the bacon and turnovers. In a separate bowl mix 6 eggs, 3/4 cup half and half, and 2 cups milk. Pour the egg mixture over the cheese, bacon, and turnover.

Turn the crockpot to low and allow to cook for about 4 hours. This works great if you have a crockpot that you can set on a timer before you go to bed. It can also be cooked in a 8 x 8 dish for 50 minutes at 350 degrees.

The apple in the turnover gives the Strata such a great flavor. I love the flavor that happens when the apple and bacon blend together. It’s such a great recipe to throw together for a school day or serve it up for a brunch. Everyone will love it.

Rise and Shine Crockpot Strata
2 Apple Turnovers
2 cups Milk
3/4 cup 1/2 and 1/2
6 eggs
2 cups shredded Cheddar Cheese
4 slices bacon or 2 sausage links

Spray the bottom and sides of your crockpot with cooking spray. Cut the turnovers into slices. Put the turnover pieces in the crockpot. Layer the bacon and cheese on top of the turnovers.

Mix the milk, cream and eggs in a separate bowl. Pour the egg mixture over the turnovers, cheese, and bacon. Set the crockpot for approximately 4 hours on low. Allow to cool and serve.

You can also bake for approximately 50 minutes at 350 degrees. Enjoy!
