Ingredients
- 1 16-ounce loaf French bread
- 16 ounces breakfast sausage
- 3 ounces cream cheese
- 7 large eggs or equivalent
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
- ¼ teaspoon onion powder
- 2 tablespoons jalapeno pepper diced, fresh or pickled
- 6 to 8 slices cheddar cheese or your favorite cheese
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375℉.
- With a sharp, serrated knife, slice the top 1/3 of the bread off. Using your fingers, hollow out the entire loaf of bread leaving a 1-inch shell. (Keep the bread you remove for croutons or breadcrumbs.)
- Cook the sausage and drain. While it's hot, mix it with the cream cheese. Spoon the sausage mixture into your bread.
- Beat the eggs with the black pepper, red pepper, and onion powder. Soft scramble them then spoon on top of the sausage.
- Evenly distribute the diced jalapenos over the eggs.
- Place the cheese slices over the eggs.
- Cook until the cheese is melted and begins to bubble.
- Remove the bread boat from the oven, slice, and serve. (My boys like to drizzle with maple syrup.)
