01 Step

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). (5 minutes)
02 Step
Recipe View
In a large skillet, brown the breakfast sausage over medium-high heat until fully cooked. Drain off any excess grease, then set aside to cool slightly. (10 minutes)
03 Step
Recipe View
Pour the beaten eggs into a lightly greased 9x13 inch baking dish, ensuring an even layer. (2 minutes)
04 Step
Recipe View
In a separate large bowl, combine the cooked sausage, torn bread pieces, and 12 ounces of the shredded Cheddar cheese. Mix well to distribute the ingredients evenly. (5 minutes)
05 Step
Recipe View
Gently pour the sausage-bread mixture over the eggs in the baking dish, spreading it out to cover the entire surface. (3 minutes)
06 Step
Recipe View
Sprinkle the remaining 4 ounces of shredded Cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the casserole. Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil. (2 minutes)
07 Step
Recipe View
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Then, carefully remove the foil and continue baking until the casserole is golden brown and bubbly, about 25-30 minutes longer. (45 minutes)
For a richer flavor, try using a combination of cheddar and Gruyere cheese.
Substitute bacon for sausage for a different flavor profile.
Day-old bread works best to prevent the casserole from becoming soggy.
Feel free to add chopped vegetables like bell peppers, onions, or mushrooms to the sausage mixture for added nutrients and flavor.

May 12, 2023The bread got a little soggy. Next time, I'll use day-old bread as suggested.
