This easyย Venison Sausage Croissant Breakfast Casserole is SO cheesy and delicious! The croissants are buttery and soft, the eggs light and fluffy. Itโ€™s perfect for breakfast, brunch, or dinner. Itโ€™s so quick and easy to make.
CROISSANT BREAKFAST CASSEROLE
The buttery croissants make an especially rich foundation for this golden-topped baked croissant breakfast casserole. Toasting the croissants before building the breakfast casserole adds caramelized notes that can stand up to the bits of browned venison sausage, fresh spinach and mozzarella strewn throughout. Make this the night before a special breakfast or brunch, then pop it in the oven 45 minutes before you plan to serve it.
WHY I LOVE BREAKFAST CASSEROLES!
Breakfast casserole is an all-in-one hearty meal that can be made ahead of time, feeds a crowd, reheats well, and makes great leftovers. The girls and I devour it every time it's on the table. For all these reasons and more, Iโ€™ve made it dozens of times for breakfast, brunch, and, yes, dinner. Itโ€™s one of our favorites.
Let me show you how it comes together so you too can experience thisย crowd-pleasing superhero meal.
