Christmas Breakfast Strata
Anne Zimmerman via The Kitchn
Notes
Christmas breakfast strata can be made the day before and kept in the refrigerator overnight; however, you'll need to let it bake in the oven for a few extra minutes before serving.
Ingredients
- 6 slices of bread (a dense Italian style loaf, cut 3/4-inch thick works best)
1 pound pork sausage
1 teaspoon prepared mustard
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (a mix of cheddar and mozzarella works too)
4 eggs, slightly beaten
1 1/2 cups whole milk
3/4 cup half and half
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
Dash of nutmeg
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium saucepan, brown the sausage. As sausage is browning, trim crust from bread and fit into a 10x16-inch baking pan.
- Once sausage is fully cooked, drain excess fat and stir in mustard. Spoon sausage evenly over bread and sprinkle on the grated cheese.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, half and half, salt, pepper, nutmeg, and Worcestershire sauce. Pour mixture over the cheese and sausage.
- Bake for 25 to 30 minutes and serve warm.
