We make this every year for Christmas breakfast. We now go to our daughter's home for Christmas. There is no need for the hostess to get up early to bake it in the morning. She assembles and bakes this early on Christmas Eve. In the morning, we cut it into squares and nuke it for a quick, easy, delicious breakfast. For low carb, simply replace the flour with soy flour.
