Notes
For the best texture, let the casserole rest overnight so the English muffins fully absorb the custard.
Add the hollandaise sauce just before serving so the casserole stays fresh and the topping keeps its silky texture.
Let the casserole sit for 5 to 10 minutes after baking so it slices more neatly.
