Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish or quiche pan.
In a mixing bowl, combine the thawed hash browns, melted butter, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
Press the hash brown mixture evenly into the bottom and up the sides of the prepared pie dish to form a crust.
Bake the hash brown crust in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until golden brown and slightly crisp. Remove from the oven and allow it to cool slightly while you prepare the filling.
Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C).
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until smooth and fully combined.
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled sausage, and chopped green onions.
Pour the egg mixture into the pre-baked hash brown crust, spreading it out evenly.
Place the quiche in the oven and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the egg filling is set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the quiche from the oven and let it cool for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy your delicious Breakfast Hash Brown Quiche!
