Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 24 oz frozen shredded hash browns
- 1 lb breakfast sausage
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter
- 3 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 3 cups milk
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 0.5 tsp onion powder
- 0.5 tsp garlic powder
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 eggs
- 0.5 cup heavy cream
- 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Spread the frozen hash browns evenly in the prepared baking dish. Bake the hash browns for 20 minutes while preparing the sausage gravy.
In a large skillet, cook the breakfast sausage over medium heat until browned and fully cooked, breaking it up into small pieces. Remove the sausage from the skillet and set it aside, leaving the drippings in the pan.
Add the unsalted butter to the skillet and melt it over medium heat. Whisk in the all-purpose flour, cooking for 1-2 minutes to form a roux.
Gradually whisk in the milk, ensuring no lumps form. Continue cooking, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens into a creamy gravy.
Stir in the salt, black pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder, then add the cooked sausage back into the gravy. Mix well and set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until smooth.
Remove the partially baked hash browns from the oven. Pour the sausage gravy evenly over the hash browns, spreading it out with a spatula.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the gravy.
Pour the egg and cream mixture over the top, ensuring it spreads evenly over the cheese and layers below.
Return the dish to the oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the top is golden and bubbly.
Remove the bake from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired.
Slice into portions and serve warm as a hearty breakfast or brunch.
