I used to love french toast stuffed with breakfast sausage and cheese, so I came up with this easier french toast bake. Our family loves it! I served it to some friends one time, and one said it was "savory" - hence the name: Savory French Toast Bake.

1 1/2 cups grated cheese

It's easier to work with the bread if it's somewhat frozen. Butter one side of each slice of bread and cut into bite sized chunks.

Whisk eggs, milk, sugar, cinnamon and salt in separate bowl.
Pour wet mixture over bread/sausages/cheese.
Bake 15 minutes uncovered.

If you prefer the top not to be crunchy, then leave cover on entire baking time.
