Breakfast Casserole with Bellisari’s Blistered Jalapeño & Fig Spread and North Country Charcuterie Breakfast Patty 

Ingredients:

Softened butter to grease the pan

6 tsp olive oil

3 tbsp Bellisari’s Blistered Jalapeño & Fig  

¾ lb North Country Charcuterie Breakfast Patty

1 large red onion, halved, and then sliced lengthwise into ¼ thick wedges 

Kosher salt and black pepper

4 cups torn kale leaves 

¾ cup diced fontina 

12 large eggs

¾ cup heavy cream 

½ cup grated parmesan

Aleppo pepper for finishing 

Directions 

1. Heat oven to 325 degrees. Generously butter a large 2½-quart baking dish.
2. Heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium. Add North Country Charcuterie Breakfast Patty and cook, stirring to break it up, until lightly browned, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to the baking dish, spreading it in an even layer.
3. Add 2 teaspoons of oil to the skillet and increase heat to medium-high. Add red onion, salt it lightly and cook, stirring frequently, until it starts to take on color, about 8 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low and continue cooking until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to the baking dish and arrange evenly on top of the sausage.
4. Add the remaining 2 teaspoons of oil to the skillet and heat over medium. Add kale, season it lightly with salt and pepper, cover and cook, occasionally tossing with tongs until wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to the baking dish and arrange evenly on top of the onions. Top with the fontina.
5. Whisk together the eggs, Bellisari’s Blistered Jalapeño & Fig, and cream in a large bowl and season generously with salt and pepper. (If making ahead of time, wrap the baking dish and egg mixture separately and refrigerate until needed.)
6. Pour the egg mixture over the ingredients in the baking dish, and sprinkle with Parmesan. Bake until the eggs are just set in the middle, 25 to 30 minutes. (Increase the baking time by about 15 minutes if the components were refrigerated ahead of time.).
7. Broil until the top is lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Sprinkle with Aleppo.
