Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound breakfast sausage
- 6 slices bread
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 6 pieces large eggs
- 2 cups milk
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon dried mustard powder
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter (for greasing)
- 2 tablespoons chopped parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with unsalted butter.
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage, breaking it into crumbles, until fully browned. Drain off any excess grease and set aside.
Cut the slices of bread into cubes. Arrange the bread cubes evenly across the greased baking dish.
Sprinkle the cooked sausage on top of the bread, followed by an even layer of shredded cheddar cheese.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, ground black pepper, and mustard powder until the mixture is smooth and well-combined.
Pour the egg mixture evenly over the layers in the casserole dish, ensuring all the bread cubes are soaked.
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the casserole is set and the top is golden brown.
Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before cutting into squares. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired and serve warm.
