Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground breakfast sausage
- 8 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded
- 4 cups bread, cubed
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons green onions, chopped
- 1 as needed cooking spray or butter for greasing
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter.
In a large skillet, cook the ground breakfast sausage over medium heat until browned and fully cooked. Break it into small crumbles as it cooks. Drain any excess grease and set the cooked sausage aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, melted butter, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Add the cubed bread, cooked sausage, and 1 1/2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese to the egg mixture. Stir to evenly coat the bread and distribute the ingredients.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese on top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set. You can test doneness by inserting a knife into the center—it should come out clean.
Remove from the oven and let the casserole cool for 5-10 minutes. Garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
Slice into portions and serve warm. Enjoy!
