I love all different fall flavored English muffins.  Sometimes, I stock them up in the freezer when they are on sale.  This allows me to enjoy them later throughout the year.

If you have a programmable slow cooker, you can set this up easily.  Breakfast will be waiting for you when you are up and running.

CHEF NOTES

As mentioned earlier, you can store English muffins in the freezer.  Whenever you are ready, put them into the fridge overnight and let them thaw before enjoying them.

If you don’t have pumpkin flavored English muffins, use regular English muffins with the same ingredients and directions to prepare this casserole.  But add 2 tsp pumpkin pie spice in the egg mixture.  This will give the same flavor to this delicious casserole dish.  There are also other fall flavored English muffins out there, such as cinnamon and raisins.  Replace it with the pumpkin flavored ones and follow the rest of the recipe which will give you another great breakfast dish.
