Savory Challah Bread Pudding
A savory bread pudding, or strata, is great way to make a hearty breakfast for a big group.
Servings: 8 Servings
Ingredients
- 3 cups milk (preferably whole)
- 8 large eggs
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper ( to taste)
- 2 teaspoons dry mustard
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 6 cups cubed challah
- 1 ½ cups grated sharp cheddar
- 1 ½ cups crumbled cooked sausage, (or turkey or pork)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 F. Grease a 9 x 13 or 2 1/2 to 3-quart baking pan, or spray it lightly with nonstick spray.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, salt (go easy on the salt as the sausage and cheese are salty), pepper, mustard, and honey.
- Place the bread, cheddar, and sausage in the baking pan, toss to combine, then pour the liquid over, and toss everything so the bread is soaked with the milk mixture.
- Bake for about 40 minutes until puffed and golden brown. Serve hot, warm, or at room temperature.
Notes
This is the perfect leftover meal — change up your meat, cheese, or use whatever you have.
