Instant Pot Breakfast Casserole with Ham and Egg

April 9, 2018 by Rose Atwater 6 Comments

Breakfast is so important for a great day, and this Instant Pot Breakfast Casserole with Ham and Egg is a favorite option in our house.  It comes together easily, cooks while we get ready for the day, and is satisfying for hours.  A hearty breakfast is a must with a house full of kids, and this one makes everybody happy.

Instant Pot Breakfast Casserole with Ham and Egg

My 11 year old son actually made this the day I took pics. He’d been begging to make a special recipe for breakfast, so I encouraged him to try this one.

But I have to tell you, the first time around, we thought the recipe was a bust. After taking a bite, I realized why… he forgot he hashbrowns!  There is way too much seasoning in this casserole to skip a main ingredient!

However, after pointing out his mistake, he immediately jumped up and made another batch.  The second time, the recipe was a hit!

And I love that all of the ingredients are staples in our home, so this was easy to pull together without going shopping!

To make this Instant Pot Breakfast Casserole, you need a few ingredients and supplies.

First up, you’ll need a dish that fits inside your Instant Pot. I use a simple 7 cup round Pyrex dish (this one fits perfectly in the Instant Pot).  I’m sure there are other options but I bought a set of 4 of those so I’d always have one ready to go!

Also, you’ll need a trivet for placing the bowl inside your pot.  Some use an aluminum foil sling, but I prefer using the trivet that has handles. Another option would be to use a bowl small enough for you to easily remove it with silicone pot holders.

This Instant Pot breakfast casserole is going to be a favorite option for weekend breakfast.  Serve with a side of fresh fruit and you have a complete breakfast the entire family will enjoy.  It’s even a perfect way to use up leftover ham after the holidays!

Notes

My family loved this as written, but if I were making it just for me, I’d cut back on the onion powder.
