Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1 16 oz can of jumbo biscuits
  • 2 cups of frozen shredded hash browns
  • 12 oz breakfast sausage
  • 8 eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Dish: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13 inch baking dish with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Layer the Biscuits: Line the bottom of the baking dish with the jumbo biscuit dough, pressing it down firmly and evenly to create a biscuit crust layer.
  3. Add Hash Browns: Evenly spread the frozen shredded hash browns over the biscuit base layer for a crispy potato component.
  4. Cook Sausage: In a frying pan over medium heat, cook and crumble the breakfast sausage until browned and fully cooked. Drain off the excess grease and then evenly distribute the sausage over the hash browns in the baking dish.
  5. Mix and Pour Egg Mixture: In a separate bowl, beat together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until blended. Pour this egg mixture evenly over the biscuit, hash brown, and sausage layers in the baking dish.
  6. Add Cheese and Bake: Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly on top. Bake the casserole in the oven for 25 to 30 minutes, covering with foil if the top begins to brown too quickly.
  7. Rest and Serve: Remove from the oven and let the casserole stand for 5 minutes to set. Cut into squares and serve warm for a delicious and filling breakfast.

Notes

  • Make sure to drain the cooked sausage well to avoid a greasy casserole.
  • If you prefer a crispier top, bake uncovered but watch closely to prevent burning.
  • Use frozen hash browns straight from the freezer without thawing for best texture.
  • You can substitute breakfast sausage with a vegetarian alternative if desired.
  • Allowing the bake to rest for a few minutes helps it firm up for cleaner cutting.
