The Ultimate French Toast Breakfast Loaf

Step 1: Combine 5 eggs, buttermilk, and seasoning in a bowl. Slice the Italian loaf in half and submerge it in the egg mixture.

Step 2: Pan-fry the soaked loaf halves on each side for 3 minutes and set aside on a baking tray.

Step 3: Combine the remaining 4 eggs in a bowl with green onions, sausage, bacon, half of the grated cheese, and season with salt and pepper.

Step 4: Add the egg mixture to a medium-high frying pan with melted butter and cook for a few minutes, or just until the eggs have started to firm but are still moist.

Step 5: Equally divide the cooked egg mixture amongst the top of each French toast half, then cover with the remaining grated cheese.

Step 6: Cook in the oven on broil just until the cheese melts.

Step 7: Combine the hot sauce and maple syrup in a separate bowl and add to the top of the breakfast loaf before serving.
