Ingredients
- 2 medium baguettes
- 6 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk (whole or 2%)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 cup cooked sausage crumbles (pork, turkey, or plant-based)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar or mozzarella cheese
- 2 green onions, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
- Prepare the Baguettes: Cut a long rectangle out of the top of each baguette and remove the bread inside, creating a hollow cavity. Be careful not to cut through the bottom or sides. Place the hollowed-out baguettes on the prepared baking sheet.
- Make the Egg Mixture: In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and garlic powder until smooth.
- Assemble the Egg Boats: Evenly distribute the cooked sausage crumbles into the hollowed baguettes. Pour the egg mixture into the baguettes, filling them about 3/4 full. Top with shredded cheese.
- Bake: Carefully transfer the baking sheet to the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the cheese is melted and golden.
- Garnish and Serve: Remove the egg boats from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped green onions if desired. Slice into portions and serve warm.
