De bereidingswijze

Stap voor stap

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 160°C (325°F) and lightly grease an 8-inch square baking dish.

   Ongeveer 5 min

2. 2

   In a medium skillet over medium-high heat, cook the pork sausage, breaking it apart with a spoon, until it is browned and cooked through.

   Ongeveer 7 min

   Tip van de kok: If you are using sausage links, be sure to remove the casings before cooking.

3. 3

   Drain off any excess grease from the skillet.

   Ongeveer 1 min

4. 4

   Spread the cooked sausage in an even layer in the bottom of the prepared baking dish.

   Ongeveer 1 min

5. 5

   In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and optional black pepper until well combined.

   Ongeveer 2 min

6. 6

   Stir the grated cheddar cheese into the egg mixture.

   Ongeveer 1 min

7. 7

   Pour the egg and cheese mixture evenly over the sausage in the baking dish.

   Ongeveer 1 min

8. 8

   Sprinkle the croutons over the top and gently press them down so they are partially submerged in the egg mixture.

   Ongeveer 2 min

   Tip van de kok: This helps the croutons absorb some of the custard and become tender on the bottom while staying crisp on top.

9. 9

   Cover the dish with foil and bake for 40 minutes, or until the eggs are set and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.

   Ongeveer 40 min
