Sausage egg and cheese pie

Sausage, egg, and cheese pie is a delectable and satisfying dish that brings together the classic combination of savory sausage, creamy eggs, and rich cheese within a comforting pie form. This hearty dish is typically crafted by layering a flaky, buttery pastry crust with flavorful breakfast sausage, a luscious mixture of beaten eggs and cream, and a generous sprinkling of shredded cheese. The pie is then baked to golden perfection, resulting in a savory, custardy interior encased in a crisp and golden crust.
