Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Sausage and Hash Brown Breakfast Casserole.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and greasing a 9-inch square baking dish or a deep-dish pie plate to ensure your casserole comes out easily.
Step 2
In a large skillet, cook the hot pork sausage over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally until it’s beautifully browned and crumbly, which should take about 5 to 7 minutes.
Step 3
Once it’s cooked, drain any excess grease to keep your dish from becoming too oily.
Step 4
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the milk, beaten eggs, and a teaspoon of salt until everything is well blended and frothy.
Step 5
Now, transfer the cooked sausage into a large bowl and add in the thawed hash browns, shredded Cheddar cheese, ground black pepper, and the remaining half teaspoon of salt.
Step 6
Give it a good stir until all the ingredients are evenly combined, creating a deliciously hearty mixture.
Step 7
Next, spread this savory sausage and hash brown blend evenly in your prepared baking dish.
Step 8
Pour the egg mixture over the top, making sure it covers every inch of the surface for that perfect custardy finish.
Step 9
Now, it’s time to bake! Place your dish in the preheated oven and let it bake for about 45 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbling and has turned a lovely golden brown.
Step 10
The aroma wafting through your kitchen will be irresistible, and soon you’ll have a delightful dish that’s perfect for breakfast, brunch, or any gathering.
Step 11
Enjoy every bite!.
