Method

Step‑by‑Step Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Cook the breakfast sausage in a skillet over medium heat until browned, approximately 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until frothy.
Grease your casserole dish, layer diced bread at the bottom, place cooked sausage over the bread, and sprinkle cheese on top.
Pour the whisked egg mixture over the layers, allowing the bread to absorb it.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes until the eggs are set and the top is golden.
Allow the casserole to cool for about 5 minutes before serving.
