Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 1 small yellow onion, chopped
  • 4 cups frozen shredded hash browns
  • 1 pound bulk sausage, mild, hot or sage
  • 2 1/4 cups whole milk
  • 8 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 8 cups cubed French or Italian bread, crusts removed
  • 2 cups (1/2 pound) grated Cheddar
  • 2 cups (1/2 pound) freshly grated Parmesan

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Spray a deep 13 by 9-inch casserole dish with vegetable oil cooking spray.

Melt the butter in a large frying pan. Add the onion and saute over medium-low heat until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the hash browns and break apart. Saute until soft, about 5 minutes.

In a second frying pan, saute the sausage, breaking apart large clumps. When the sausage is cooked through, remove it from pan.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the milk, eggs, salt, pepper, nutmeg and mustard, briskly to blend.

To assemble, spread the onions and hash browns evenly at the bottom of the greased dish. Place the bread cubes evenly on top of hash browns. With a slotted spoon distribute sausage as the third layer. Pour the milk and egg mixture over these layers. Add Parmesan as the next layer, while then adding the Cheddar.

*Cook's Note: Save a few tablespoons of Cheddar for the last 10 minutes of baking, where you can add a fresh topping of melted Cheddar.

Bake the casserole, uncovered for 45 to 50 minutes, until puffed and golden brown.

    I changed the recipe a tad by adding BACON instead of sausage and I didn't add the bread, mustard or nutmeg. My family and office loves this recipe. They talk about it all day, asking when are you going to make it again. YUMMY!!!

    Made this for Easter Brunch today and it was a HUGE success. I browned a bag of Potatoes O'Brien in a half stick of butter in one pan and a pound of sweet Italian Sausage in another. Generously butter a 9 x 13 pan, layer 1st - potatoes, 2nd - 1/2 of the sausage, 3rd - a couple of handfuls of cheese, 4th - the bread, 5th - rest of the sausage, pour egg mixture over all and let set for 1.5 hours. Bake for 40 minutes, top with a little more cheddar, bake about 5 more minutes until the cheese is melted - YUMMY!
