Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 sheet pre-made pie crust
- 6 pieces large eggs
- 0.5 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 5 pieces breakfast sausage links
- 0.5 whole red bell pepper
- 0.5 whole green bell pepper
- 2 stalks green onions
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Roll out the pre-made pie crust and press it into a 9-inch pie dish. Trim any overhanging edges and crimp the edges for a decorative look.
Prick the bottom of the crust with a fork to prevent bubbling and pre-bake the crust in the oven for 8-10 minutes until lightly golden. Remove and set aside.
While the crust pre-bakes, cook the breakfast sausage links in a skillet over medium heat until browned and cooked through. Let them cool slightly, then slice them into 1/2-inch rounds.
Dice the red and green bell peppers into small 1/4-inch pieces. Slice the green onions thinly, separating the white parts from the green tops.
In the same skillet, heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil and sauté the diced peppers and the white parts of the green onions for 3-4 minutes until softened. Set aside.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese.
Pour the egg mixture into the pre-baked pie crust. Arrange the sliced sausage rounds on top in a circular pattern to resemble a wagon wheel.
Scatter the sautéed bell peppers and green onions over the top of the pie, allowing the sausage pattern to remain visible.
Bake the breakfast pie in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is lightly golden.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing into wedges.
Serve warm and garnish with the reserved green onion tops for a fresh and colorful finish!
