Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice the top of the French bread loaf horizontally and hollow out the inside to create a trench, leaving about 1 inch of bread on the bottom and sides. Set the removed bread aside.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage, breaking it up into small crumbles, until browned and fully cooked. Drain any excess grease and set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, whole milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Heat the butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture and cook gently, stirring frequently, until the eggs are just set but still slightly soft. Remove from heat.
Mix the cooked sausage and scrambled eggs together, then stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and chopped green onions.
Spoon the sausage and egg mixture into the hollowed-out French bread loaf, filling it evenly.
Place the filled loaf on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the bread is golden and crispy and the cheese is melted.
Remove from the oven and let the loaf cool for 5 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.
Slice the loaf into sections and serve warm. Enjoy!
