Ingredients
  

Hash Brown Base
  • 30 oz frozen shredded hash browns, thawed and excess moisture squeezed out Ensure they are very dry
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt or to taste
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper or to taste
Filling
  • 1 lb breakfast sausage Cooked and browned
  • 8 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese Or substitute with other types of cheese

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and generously grease a 12-cup standard muffin tin.
  2. Ensure the thawed hash browns are very dry by squeezing out all excess moisture.
  3. Mix dry hash browns with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a large bowl.
  4. Firmly press about 1/4 cup of the hash brown mixture into the bottom and up the sides of each muffin cup to form a nest.
Baking
  1. Bake for 15-20 minutes until the edges are golden brown and crispy.
  2. While the hash browns are baking, cook the breakfast sausage in a large skillet over medium-high heat until browned. Drain any excess grease.
  3. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk, then scramble the eggs in the skillet over medium heat until just set.
Assembly
  1. Remove the hash brown crusts from the oven and layer the cooked sausage and scrambled eggs into each crust.
  2. Top each bowl generously with shredded cheddar cheese.
Final Baking
  1. Return the muffin tin to the oven and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.
  2. Allow to cool for a few minutes before serving.
