Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 pieces breakfast sausage links
- 3 cups frozen hash browns
- 6 pieces large eggs
- 1.5 cups half-and-half cream
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons green onions (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter and set aside.
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage links until browned and fully cooked, about 8-10 minutes. Remove from the skillet and let cool slightly, then slice each sausage into bite-sized pieces.
Spread the frozen hash browns evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, half-and-half cream, salt, black pepper, and onion powder until well combined.
Sprinkle half of the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the hash browns, followed by the sliced sausage links.
Pour the egg mixture evenly over the hash browns and sausage. Use a spatula to ensure the liquid spreads evenly across the dish.
Top the casserole with the remaining shredded cheddar cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is golden brown.
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
Garnish with chopped green onions, if desired, and serve warm. Enjoy your Sunrise Breakfast Sausage Links Easter Casserole!
