Gluten Free Friday – As Promised….Brunch Casserole!

Very much a comfort food, and naturally gluten free, I’ve taken this breakfast casserole to a few gatherings, and it always seems to get lots of rave reviews. I’m thinking of having it ready to go in the oven on Christmas morning along with our traditional “Sara’s Coffee Cake!” (Thanks, Sara E!) The potato crust just makes this dish! Enjoy!

Brunch Casserole

1/2 cup butter ( 1 stick)
3 medium baking potatoes, grated
2 pounds bulk pork sausage (I use Jones – All Natural)
1 cup cheddar cheese
1 cup mozzarella cheese
8 eggs
1 cup milk
salt

Pre-heat oven to 450 degrees. Put butter in 13X9 glass baking dish and place in oven. Leave baking dish in oven until butter is melted completely. While butter melts in oven, grate 3 baking potatoes (I actually used red potatoes). When pan is ready, spread grated potatoes evenly in bottom along with butter and sprinkle salt over potatoes. Bake again at 450* for 30 minutes. While potatoes are baking, brown the sausage and drain. Layer sausage over browned potatoes. sprinkle with the two types of cheese. Combine eggs and milk and pour over top of sausage and cheese. Bake again at 350* this time – for another 30 minutes. Serves 15-20.

  1. Hi, Melanie! I'm a friend of Amy Gattis – we used to go to church together when they lived in TX. I found your blog linked on her sidebar and became a follower the other day. I just found out a couple of weeks ago that I have a gluten sensitivity, so I am in research mode!! We also homeschool! Thanks for a great blog! I look forward to following along and trying some of your recipes! 😉

  2. Definitely, Romy!

    Hi Carrie – I'm so glad you introduced yourself! Sorry about your gluten sensitivity, but I hope I can be of help. My 3 kids and I all have a sensitivity to gluten, so food has been a huge issue in our house for 6 years now! I am thankful that it can be controlled with diet, and we are fortunate that there are so many resources available now!

    And you love the Gattis family, and you homeschool, and you're from TEXAS! I'm sure we are going to be great friends! 😉
