Breakfast Sausage Croissant Casserole Recipe | Club Foody

 

Some of our family and friends live outside of British Columbia. When they come to visit, they obviously stay with us. With the Holidays 🎄 coming up soon, I’m sure we will have some of them spending a few days at our house.
 
Of course, I’ll be serving them lovely dinners 🍲 but also amazing breakfasts. I have a few favorites when there are guests staying over. It can be Breakfast Burritos, Georgian Cheese Bread, Waffles, Pancakes, Farmer’s Sausage Skillet, Breakfast Scramble Vol-au-vent, Quiche, Omelets, Eggs Benny Poutine, etc.
 
Besides my regular Breakfast Casserole, there’s another one I enjoy making 👩‍🍳… my Breakfast Sausage Croissant Casserole! Very delicious and super quick to put together, this amazing recipe is perfect to serve the morning after when there’s people staying over.
 
The bonus with the dish is that it can mostly be made ahead. After cooking the hot Italian sausage and sautéing the vegetables 🧅, they can be stored in a container and transferred to the fridge until ready to bake – I suggest not chilling them more than a day.
 
The next day, everything is mixed together with the torn croissants. The mixture is dropped into a 3-quart greased baking dish before the egg mixture 🥚 is poured over. The two cheeses are sprinkled on top as well as the smoked paprika and the dish is baked for 40 minutes… done!
 
I use 6 large croissants 🥐 for this recipe. I prefer tearing them into large bite-sized pieces. I find that when they’re torn smaller, it turns the dish into a mushier texture which is really not enjoyable. I personally don’t like it but everyone’s taste is different so go for what you like!
 
I like using hot Italian sausage but mild is another option. For the veggies, there’s onions, bell peppers and poblano peppers. In the video 🎥, I used an orange pepper. Visually, red would’ve been better but that orange one needed to be looked after before it got too soft so it went into the dish.
 
That’s the beauty when making this Breakfast Sausage Croissant Casserole. Just like in a Quiche, you can use different vegetables from your crisper. Zucchini 🥒, mushrooms, spinach, kale, peas, etc., are all great choices.
 
I don’t use a lot of seasonings as the sausage already has a lot. On the other hand, if you’re using mild instead of hot, definitely add more seasonings like red pepper flakes, fennel, garlic 🧄, paprika, etc. Here’s the link for my homemade Hot Italian Sausage recipe… Hot Italian Sausage
 
A casserole won’t be complete without cheese 🧀! I use two kinds: sharp Cheddar cheese and Havarti which gives a nice creamy and buttery flavor. Once again, use the ones you prefer like Mozzarella, Fontina, Monterey Jack, Gruyère, smoked Gouda, etc.
 
The rest is easy peasy! The dish is covered with foil and baked at 350ºF for 40 minutes ⏰. Halfway through cooking though, the foil is removed and continue baking for the remaining 20 minutes or until the top is golden. After it has cooled for 10 minutes, the casserole is garnished with chopped green onions…
 
This flavorful Breakfast Sausage Croissant Casserole is ideal when you have company 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 staying overnight. With a gorgeous combination of ingredients, it’s a satisfying meal to make. Don’t spend too much time prepping breakfast and serve your guests this delightful meal…
Bon Appétit! 🍽
