Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Savory Breakfast Sausage Casserole.
Step 1
Start by crumbling the ground pork sausage into a medium skillet and cooking it over medium heat until it’s beautifully browned.
Step 2
Once it’s cooked, drain any excess fat to keep your casserole light and delicious.
Step 3
In a mixing bowl, whisk together mustard powder, salt, beaten eggs, and milk until everything is well blended and smooth.
Step 4
Now, it’s time to bring in the star ingredients! Gently fold in the cooked sausage, toasted bread cubes, and shredded Cheddar cheese, making sure each piece is coated in that flavorful egg mixture.
Step 5
Next, transfer this delightful mixture into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
Step 6
To let those flavors mingle and deepen, cover the dish and pop it in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours or, for the best results, overnight.
Step 7
When you’re ready to bake, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Step 8
Cover the dish with foil and let it bake for 45 to 60 minutes, filling your kitchen with mouthwatering aromas.
Step 9
After that initial baking time, carefully uncover the casserole and lower the oven temperature to 325°F (165°C).
Step 10
Continue baking for another 30 minutes, or until the center is set and firm.
Step 11
Once it’s done, take it out of the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
