I love, and I mean LOVE a breakfast casserole. Growing up, breakfast casseroles were typical items on the menus for holiday breakfasts. I think they're too delicious to only eat a few mornings a year! This breakfast casserole has the typical ingredients: eggs, milk, breakfast sausage, cheese, salt and pepper, but instead of a traditional bread/crouton/croissant I used....Everything Bagels and Everything but the Bagel seasoning. This added such an interesting texture and crunch! Definitely try this recipe!
Everything Bagel Breakfast Casserole
Serves: 6 Preparation Time: 10 minutes Baking Time: 35-40 minutes
Ingredients:
7 Eggs
3/4 cup milk (I used skim)
1/2 lb. breakfast sausage, browned, crumbled and drained
2 Everything Bagels, torn into bite sized pieces
1 Cup Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese
Salt & Pepper
Everything but the Bagel seasoning
Directions:
- Lightly grease a deep 8x8 pan (I use Pam), and preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
- Brown your sausage on the stovetop until cooked through, then drain. (I bought and browned an entire pound and used half for this casserole, and reserved half for homemade pizza the next evening!)
- Tear your Everything Bagels into bite-size pieces and place at the bottom of your greased pan.
- Place your browned breakfast sausage evenly over the top of your bagels.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs and milk together until evenly mixed. Season with salt and pepper, then pour over the top of your bagels and sausage.
- Top with shredded cheddar cheese and Everything but the Bagel seasoning.
- Bake, uncovered, in your preheated oven until the center is browned and no longer "jiggles" when you shake it.
