Servings: persons

4 cups roughly chopped sweet onion
2.5-3 cups sliced apple
6 cups cubed bread - kosher onion rolls
9 lg eggs
1 3/4 cups whole milk
2 cups shredded Amish Bermuda Onion cheese
1 tablespoon good grainy mustard
2 teaspoons fresh thyme
1.25 teaspoons freshly ground pepper (or grains of paradise)
1.25 teaspoons truffle salt
1.5 tablespoons truffle oil - white or black
.5 teaspoons freshly ground nutmeg

1
Toast the bread cubes in 200 deg. oven 20 min. or so, until golden. Remove & cool
2
In a large hot skillet, add the oil & onions. Cover & saute until almost starting to caramelize, then add sliced apples. Stir & cover. Stir several times. When wilted, add thyme, 3/4 tsp. pepper & 1/2 tsp. salt. Cover & continue cooking until onions very soft and some liquid is in pan.
3
Add mustard. Nestle the sausage in the onion/apples. Cover. Cook 5-10 min. Rearrange sausage so mixture sort of covers & cook another 5 min. or so. Sausage will plump up dramatically. Remove sausage & slice, then add back to pan & stir. Cook another few minutes until liquid absorbed.
4
Butter a large casserole. Layer 1/2 of toasted bread, 1/2 of onion/apple/sausage mixture, 1/2 of cheese. Add second layer of 1/2 of toasted bread, 1/2 of onion/apple/sausage mixture, 1/2 of cheese.
5
Break eggs into bowl & beat with fork or whisk. Add milk & 3/4 tsp. pepper & 1/2 tsp. salt & 1/2 tsp fresh ground nutmeg and beat several minutes until thick & creamy. Pour over layered stuff in casserole. Cover tightly with plastic wrap & refrigerate at least 6 hrs.
6
Remove from fridge to counter for 30 min. Heat oven 350 deg. & place in center of oven. Bake 20-25 min. then turn 90 deg. around and continue baking another 20-25 min. until nicely set. If the top is getting a little too brown, lightly cover with flat sheet of foil the last 10 min or so.
7
Let set at least 10-15 min. before serving.
