1
Set oven to 350F.
-
2
Generously grease a 13x9-inch baking dish with butter.
-
3
Cook the sausage in a skillet breaking up into large pieces until browned (about 8-10 minutes) drain any fat and set the sausages aside to cool.
-
4
Mix the minced garlic with the softened butter and Parmesan cheese in a small bowl.
-
5
Slice the loaf of bread in half lengthwise.
-
6
Spread a thin layer of the garlic butter on both sides of the cut side of the bread.
-
7
Arrange the two bread slices side by side in the bottom of the baking dish (don't worry if the bread does not completely cover the bottom).
-
8
Sprinkle the cooked crumbled sausage on top of the bread.
-
9
In a bowl whisk together eggs, half and half until frothy about 3 minutes, then whisk in green onions and half of the shredded cheese.
-
10
Pour the egg mixture over the sausage (the bread will float to the top, pushing down on the bread with a spatula to help the bread absorb the liquid).
-
11
Sprinkle with remaining cheese.
-
12
At this point you can cover and refrigerate until ready to bake, or bake right away.
-
13
Bake covered with a large piece of buttered foil (buttered-side down) for about 30 minutes.
-
14
Carefully remove the foil and bake until the top is slightly puffed and the eggs are cooked through (about another 20 minutes more).
-
15
Let stand 10 minutes, then cut into squares.
