A Simple Breakfast Soufflé Recipe

This Sausage Soufflé is similar to our classic Sausage and Egg Casserole, but swaps the bread cubes for Bisquick mix, creating a smoother, more cohesive texture.

The term soufflé originated in France and means a baked egg dish. In the United States we might also call this an egg bake or casserole.

This is a friend’s recipe that she shared when hosting a beautiful baby shower. In under 15 minutes, this classic breakfast is ready for the oven, making it a favorite in our family, too!

Ingredients Needed

  • Breakfast Sausage – We like a traditional blend or a maple flavored sausage.
  • Eggs
  • Cheddar Cheese – freshly shredded is best as pre-shredded has an anti-caking agent that prevents it from melting as smoothly.
  • Baking Mix – Bisquick is the most common brand.
  • Milk – activates the baking mix.
Ingredients to make a breakfast soufflé are shredded cheddar cheese, milk, eggs, sausage and baking mix on a wooden counter top.

Step By Step Instructions

Brown sausage until no pink remains. Drain and rest on paper towels to absorb and extra drippings.

In a medium mixing bowl scramble eggs. Then add Bisquick and milk to the eggs and stir well.

Add cooked and crumbled sausage and cheese. Stir well.

Pour into a 9 x 13″ dish that’s been coated with non-stick cooking spray.

Preheat oven to 350℉ and bake uncovered for 30 minutes until the center is just set and no longer jiggles when the dish is tapped.

Serve warm and enjoy!

Can the Sausage Soufflé Be Made Ahead Of Time?

Yes – this soufflé can be mixed up, covered tightly and refrigerated up to 24 hours before baking.

If refrigerating over night allow to sit at room temp for 30 minutes before baking or set pan in the oven as it preheats. Our testing took 40 minutes to bake after refrigerating.

Jennifer’s Recipe Tips and Tricks

  • Using quality sausage is important because the flavor really shines through.
  • Remove from the oven just after the eggs no longer look wet in the center. This is our preferred balance of perfectly baked eggs – not too runny and not too dry. Through our testing we found that baking for 40 minutes until the eggs are just set creates the best eating experience.
  • Save time by cooking the sausage ahead of time.
  • Adding 1 tablespoon of picante sauce is optional.
