Maple Bacon Pancake Casserole is a warm, sweet-and-savory breakfast bake that delivers all the joy of a weekend brunch in one easy-to-make dish. Fluffy pancake batter layered with crispy bacon and just a hint of maple syrup comes together in an oven-baked casserole that’s cozy, comforting, and sure to be a crowd favorite.
This recipe is all about combining your breakfast staples into a convenient and sliceable form. Pancake mix makes the process quick and foolproof, while a splash of vanilla and maple syrup enhances the flavor with a delicate sweetness. Crumbled bacon offers a salty crunch that pairs beautifully with the soft, tender texture of the pancake base. Add cheese if you’re looking for a savory twist, or leave it out for a more classic take.
It’s perfect for feeding a group, whether you’re hosting brunch, meal prepping for the week, or whipping up a comforting breakfast-for-dinner. The casserole also travels well, making it an excellent option for potlucks or holiday mornings. No flipping, no stovetop mess—just mix, pour, bake, and enjoy.
