Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground breakfast sausage
- 2 cups shredded hash brown potatoes
- 6 pieces large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 can refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.25 cup chopped green onions (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and set it aside.
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground breakfast sausage until browned and fully cooked. Drain any excess grease and set aside.
Spread the shredded hash brown potatoes evenly onto the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Stir in 1 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese.
Unroll the crescent roll dough and carefully press it evenly over the hash browns in the baking dish to form a crust.
Layer the cooked sausage evenly over the crescent roll dough. Pour the egg mixture over the top, ensuring it’s evenly distributed.
Sprinkle the remaining 0.5 cups of shredded cheddar cheese on top of the casserole.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the top is golden brown.
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes. If using, sprinkle with chopped green onions for added freshness.
Slice into squares and serve warm. Enjoy your Crescent Sausage and Potato Brunch Bake!
