Ingredients

  • 1 pound pork breakfast sausage ground
  • 7-8 large croissants dried out is best ( you want to fill the pan up 2/3's of the way with croissants so depending on the croissant size the amount needed will vary)
  • 8 large eggs
  • 2 cups of milk
  • 1 cup of heavy cream
  • 2 cups of grated  Garlic & Herb cheese

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Fry up the breakfast sausage until fully cooked and no longer pink. Drain.
  2. Tear up the croissants into one inch pieces and place in a well buttered 9x13 pan.
  3. Put sausages in.
  4. Whisk together the eggs, milk and cream. Stir in the cheese.
  5. Pour over the croissant pieces and stir in slightly to get the cheese spread out a bit.
  6. Place in the refrigerator overnight.
  7. In the morning, preheat your oven to 350 °F. Cook in the oven for 45-55 minutes or until the casserole is firm and set - and has a minimum temperature of 165°F to ensure the eggs are cooked.
  8. Remove and serve hot.

Notes

  • You can sub in Italian sausage for a different taste as well! Use plain mozza cheese instead of the flavoured if you do so.
