1

Prep the Ingredients

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter. Then, gather the following ingredients: 8 ounces of breakfast sausage, 6 large eggs, 1 and a half cups of milk, 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard, 1 teaspoon of dried thyme, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper, and 4 cups of stale bread cubes.

2

Cook the Sausage

In a skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage until it's browned and no longer pink. Use a spatula to break it up into smaller pieces as it cooks. Once cooked, remove the skillet from the heat and set it aside.

3

Whisk the Eggs and Milk

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, Dijon mustard, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Don't be afraid to put some muscle into it!

4

Combine the Ingredients

Place the stale bread cubes in the greased baking dish, followed by the cooked sausage. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the top, making sure all the bread cubes are moistened. Gently press down on the mixture to ensure everything is soaked.

5

Bake and Serve

Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Then, remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the casserole is set. Let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Cut into squares and enjoy!
