A delicious and hearty breakfast dish combining sausage, hashbrowns, eggs, and cheese, perfect for starting your day off right.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 450 g breakfast sausage (Italian or sage variety)
  • 900 g frozen hashbrowns, thawed
  • 8 large eggs
  • 360 ml whole milk
  • 200 g sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 120 g cream cheese, softened
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 1 bell pepper, chopped (any color)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
  • Fresh chives or green onions, chopped (for serving)
  • Sour cream (for serving)
  • Hot sauce or salsa (for serving)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 175°C and butter a 23×33 cm baking dish.
  2. Brown the breakfast sausage in a large skillet over medium heat, breaking into bite-sized pieces. Remove sausage with a slotted spoon, leaving 2 tablespoons of rendered fat in the pan.
  3. Add diced onion and chopped bell pepper to the skillet with sausage drippings. Sauté for 4-5 minutes until softened. Stir in minced garlic during the last minute until aromatic.
  4. Spread thawed hashbrowns evenly in the prepared baking dish. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Top with cooked sausage and vegetable mixture.
  5. Whisk together eggs, milk, softened cream cheese, salt, black pepper, and paprika until smooth. Small lumps of cream cheese are acceptable as they will melt during baking.
  6. Pour egg mixture evenly over hashbrowns and sausage layer. Gently press with a fork to allow liquid penetration. Sprinkle shredded cheddar evenly on top.
  7. Bake uncovered for 45-50 minutes until center is set and top is golden brown. Edges should slightly pull away from the dish. A clean knife inserted in the center confirms doneness.
