Ultimate Breakfast Casserole

A crowd-pleasing breakfast casserole that’s perfect for family gatherings or brunch, combining sausage, eggs, bread, and cheese in a delicious blend.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound bulk sausage
  • 6 large eggs
  • 2 cups milk
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 8 slices of bread, cubed
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup diced bell peppers
  • 1 cup diced onions

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bulk sausage until browned, then drain any excess fat.
  3. In a big mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and garlic powder until well combined.
  4. Add the cooked sausage to the egg mixture, along with the cubed bread, shredded cheese, diced bell peppers, and diced onions. Mix gently to incorporate all the ingredients.
  5. Pour the mixture into a greased 9×13 inch baking dish.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the casserole is set and the top is a beautiful golden brown.
  7. Allow it to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

For best results, use day-old bread to prevent a soggy casserole. You can also swap cheddar cheese for pepper jack for added spice.
