Ingredients
Scale
- 4 breakfast sausages
- 1 baguette approximately 20 inch long
- 2 tablespoons butter melted
- 6 eggs
- 1/2 cup milk of choice almond or oat milk preferred
- 1/2 cup sharp cheddar cheese shredded
- 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese shredded
- 2 scallions diced
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Heat your oven to 350°F and prepare a baking sheet by covering it with aluminum foil.
- Cook the breakfast sausages in a small pan until completely done and slice them into rounds once they have cooled.
- With a serrated knife, carve out a deep V-shaped hollow along the length of the baguette, ensuring you leave about a half-inch border on the bottom and sides.
- Remove the center pieces and crumbs to form a boat-like cavity inside the bread and then brush the inside with melted butter using a pastry brush.
- Place the hollowed bread on the baking sheet and set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs and milk until blended, then mix in the shredded cheeses, diced scallions, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper.
- Pour this egg mixture into the prepared baguette cavity, then arrange the sausage slices evenly down the center.
- Bake for 30 to 35 minutes until the egg filling feels firm and set.
- Take it out of the oven and let it rest for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
- Save the bread you pulled out to make breadcrumbs or croutons
- Let rest 5-10 minutes before slicing for cleaner cuts
