Prepare by cubbing your 1 loaf challah bread and placing it in a 9x11 baking dish, preheat your oven to 350 degrees, and brown the 1 pound breakfast sausage.
Top the bread with the sausage. Stir it up a bit to mix the sausage and bread evenly. Its common for the bread to be over flowing at this point, just keep pressing it back in.
Mix the 5 eggs, ¾ cup vanilla protein powder, 2 cups almond milk, ¾ tsp salt, and ¾ tsp cinnamon in a bowl and pour over the bread and sausage mixture. The protein powder may not fully mix but that's ok, it will dissolve as it bakes.
Use a spoon or spatula to press the bread into, making sure each one has been soaked or coated in the mixture.
Melt 1 stick butter and mix with the ½ cup coconut sugar. Pour this over the casserole evenly.
Bake for 35-40 minutes or until golden brown.
