How to Make Sunday Sausage Breakfast

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large skillet, brown 1 lb of breakfast sausage over medium heat, breaking it up with a spoon. Drain off any excess grease.
  3. Grease a 13x9 inch baking dish.
  4. Layer 2 cups of croutons evenly in the prepared baking dish.
  5. Spread the cooked sausage evenly over the croutons.
  6. Sprinkle 2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese over the sausage.
  7. In a medium bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs and 1 cup of milk until well combined.
  8. Season the egg mixture with 1 tablespoon of dried basil (or 2 tablespoons of fresh, chopped), 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper.
  9. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the cheese layer in the baking dish.
  10. Bake, uncovered, for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is lightly browned and a knife inserted near the center comes out clean.
  11. Let stand for 5-10 minutes before serving. Serve immediately and enjoy!
