Sausage breakfast cake is a fabulously tasty alternative to the standard cinnamon crumb coffee cake usually served at breakfast time. It combines the favorite tastes of morning including sausage, bread, and coffee for a taste sensation that is hard to beat. Sausage breakfast cake can be made the night before and served cold, but it is best piping hot and fresh from the oven.
