Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces croissant dough or pre-made croissants
- 8 large eggs
- 0.5 cups whole milk
- 1 lb breakfast sausage (ground or links, crumbled)
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp butter
- 0.25 cup green onions, chopped
- 0.25 cup parmesan cheese, grated (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
If using croissant dough, unroll it and cut to fit the baking dish. If using pre-made croissants, slice them in half lengthwise.
In a skillet, cook the breakfast sausage over medium heat until browned and fully cooked. Drain any excess grease and set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Briefly melt the butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture and cook, stirring gently, until the eggs are just set but still slightly undercooked. Remove from heat.
Begin assembling the lasagna: layer half of the croissants on the bottom of the greased baking dish.
Spread half of the scrambled eggs over the croissants, followed by half of the cooked sausage, and half of the shredded cheddar cheese.
Repeat the layers with the remaining croissants, eggs, sausage, and cheddar cheese.
Top the final layer with shredded mozzarella cheese and optional parmesan cheese.
Cover the dish with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
Remove from oven and let the breakfast lasagna cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
Garnish with chopped green onions and serve warm. Enjoy!
