Description

This Cranberry Sausage Stuffing Breakfast Casserole combines savory sausage with sweet cranberries and cheesy goodness, making it a perfect dish for brunch or holiday breakfasts.

Ingredients

Scale

1 lb breakfast sausage (pork or chicken)

1 cup dried cranberries

1 (6 oz) box stuffing mix (herb-seasoned preferred)

6 large eggs

2 cups milk

½ cup shredded cheddar or Swiss cheese

1 tbsp butter (for greasing)

Salt & pepper to taste

Optional: fresh thyme or parsley for garnish

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage until browned and thoroughly cooked; drain excess fat.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked sausage, dried cranberries, and stuffing mix.
In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Pour the egg mixture into the sausage mixture, then fold in the shredded cheese.
Spread the mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the casserole is set and lightly golden on top.
Let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh thyme or parsley if desired.

Notes

For added flavor, consider using flavored sausages or adding sautéed vegetables. This dish can be made ahead of time and refrigerated overnight before baking.
