- 10 strips bacon
- 5 eggs, large
- ¼ cup whole milk
- ½ teaspoon sea salt and black pepper, each
- 3 cups flour
- 2 ⅓ cups sharp cheddar cheese, shredded, divided
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 2 tablespoon butter
Prepare bacon
Add bacon to a large skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes until the bacon reaches the medium level of crispiness you want.
Move bacon from the skillet with a slotted spoon or spatula; drain on a paper towel. Now slice the bacon. Set bacon crumbles aside onto a plate.
Prepare scrambled eggs
Prepare a large bowl. Add eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and whisk together.
Prepare the skillet (reuse the same one you had for bacon) by spraying it with the cooking spray.
Add the egg mixture to the skillet and cook over medium heat until eggs are barely cooked, but not fully scrambled.
Make cake batter
Prepare a large bowl (or reuse the one for eggs - wash it). Add flour, bacon and 1 cup cheddar cheese (DO NOT add the entire amount of cheese listed in the ingredients). Mix well.
Add heavy cream and gradually mix the dry ingredients and the cream with a fork or a whisk until moist.
Divide the biscuit batter into two halves and set aside.
Bread assembly
Spray the budnt cake pan with cooking spray. Thoroughly, liberally and evenly.
Prepare 2 or 3 tablespoons of bacon crumbles and sprinkle them evenly on the bottom of your bundt cake pan.
Prepare ⅓ cup cheddar cheese and sprinkle it on top of the bacon crumbles.
Add one half of the batter on top of the sprinkled bacon and cheese. I used a spatula to flatten the batter.
Next, sprinkle the batter with ½ cup cheddar cheese.
Add scrambled eggs mixture and remaining bacon crumbles.
Now, sprinkle with the remaining ½ cup of cheddar cheese.
Finally, top with the remaining half of the batter. Flatten with the spatula to even it out.
Bake
Move the bundt cake into the oven and bake for 25-35 minutes until the inserted knife comes out clean.
Rest the bread for 30 minutes before inverting it onto a large plate.
Optional: Melt the butter and add it on top of your breakfast bundt cake.
Serve hot or cold.
