Indulge in the ultimate breakfast comfort with our delightful Jimmy Dean Breakfast Casserole. This hearty dish combines layers of savory sausage, fluffy eggs, gooey cheese, and a medley of flavorful ingredients, all baked to golden perfection. Whether hosting a brunch gathering or simply craving a cozy morning meal, this recipe promises to satisfy every palate.
Gather your ingredients: Jimmy Dean sausage, eggs, milk, bread, cheese, and an assortment of seasonings. This recipe’s simplicity belies its deliciousness, making it a go-to option for busy mornings or lazy weekends when you want something satisfying but effortless.
First, cook the Jimmy Dean sausage until it’s beautifully browned and fragrant, infusing the casserole with rich, savory flavor. The aroma will fill your kitchen as it sizzles in the pan, awakening your senses and whetting your appetite for the feast to come.
While the sausage cooks, whisk together eggs and milk, creating a creamy custard-like base that will bind the casserole together. Season the mixture with a sprinkle of salt and pepper, enhancing its depth of flavor and ensuring each bite is perfectly seasoned.
Next, tear the bread into bite-sized pieces and layer them in the bottom of a baking dish, creating a sturdy foundation for the casserole. The bread acts as a sponge, soaking up the savory juices from the sausage and custard, resulting in a moist and tender texture that melts in your mouth.
Once the bread is in place, sprinkle a generous layer of shredded cheese, allowing it to melt and mingle with the other ingredients as it bakes. The cheese adds a creamy richness and satisfying gooeyness that elevates the casserole to new delicious heights.
Now, pour the egg and sausage mixture over the bread and cheese, coating every inch of the casserole in luscious, flavorful goodness. Use a spatula to gently press down on the ingredients, allowing the custard to seep into the bread and sausage, ensuring that each bite is moist and flavorful.
Pop the casserole into the oven and bake until the top is golden brown and bubbling. This will fill your kitchen with the irresistible scent of breakfast perfection. When it’s done, please remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing it into generous portions and serving.
Whether enjoyed hot out of the oven or reheated as leftovers, our Jimmy Dean Breakfast Casserole will surely become a beloved favorite in your household. With its hearty ingredients, comforting flavors, and simple preparation, it’s the perfect way to start your day on a delicious note.

I’ve tried several breakfast casserole recipes in the past, but none compare to Jimmy Dean’s. The quality of the ingredients really shines through, especially the flavorful sausage. Plus, I love that I can prepare it the night before and just pop it in the oven in the morning. It’s a lifesaver on busy weekdays!
