Ingredients
- 1 pound Breakfast sausage
- 6 cups Day-old bread, cubed
- 2 cups Sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- 8 pieces Large eggs
- 2 cups Whole milk
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.25 cup Green onions (optional), sliced
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish with butter or non-stick spray.
Step 2
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage until browned and fully cooked. Break it apart into crumbles with a spatula as it cooks. Drain excess grease and set aside.
Step 3
Spread the cubed bread evenly in the prepared casserole dish.
Step 4
Sprinkle the cooked sausage over the bread cubes, followed by the shredded cheddar cheese.
Step 5
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, black pepper, and paprika until fully combined.
Step 6
Carefully pour the egg mixture evenly over the bread, sausage, and cheese in the casserole dish.
Step 7
Sprinkle sliced green onions on top, if using, for added flavor and a pop of color.
Step 8
Cover the casserole dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
Step 9
After 30 minutes, remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 20 minutes, or until the casserole is set in the center and lightly golden on top.
Step 10
Remove from the oven and allow the casserole to rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
