Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 32 oz Frozen hash browns
- 8 slices Bacon
- 2 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
- 6 Large eggs
- 1 cup Milk
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
- 0.25 cup Chopped green onions
- 2 tbsp Butter
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Place the cooked bacon on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess grease, then crumble it into small pieces.
In the same skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the frozen hash browns and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly golden. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until well combined.
Spread the cooked hash browns evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle crumbled bacon and 1 1/2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese over the hash browns.
Pour the egg mixture evenly over the top, ensuring the ingredients are well-covered.
Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded cheese on top, followed by the chopped green onions.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
Remove the aluminum foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the top is golden and the egg mixture is set in the center.
Allow the casserole to cool for 5 minutes before slicing into squares. Serve warm and enjoy!
