How to Make Sausage Breakfast Casserole

  1. Brown 1 lb sausage in a large skillet over medium heat, breaking it up with a spoon. Drain off any excess grease.
  2. Lightly grease a 3-quart rectangular baking dish. Spread 2 cups croutons evenly across the bottom.
  3. Sprinkle 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese over the croutons. Top with the cooked sausage.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups milk, 6 large eggs, and 1 teaspoon dry mustard until well combined.
  5. Carefully pour the egg mixture evenly over the sausage and croutons in the baking dish.
  6. In a small bowl, combine 10.75 oz can cream of mushroom soup and 1/2 cup milk. Whisk until smooth. Spoon evenly over the casserole.
  7. Cover the baking dish with plastic wrap and chill for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight.
  8. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Bake uncovered for 45 minutes.
  9. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese over the top. Bake for another 5-10 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
  10. Let the casserole stand for 10 minutes before serving to allow it to set.
