Description
Crispy Cheesy Sausage Hash Browns are a delicious breakfast option that combines crispy hash browns with savory sausage and melted cheese.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups frozen hash browns, thawed
- 1 cup cooked breakfast sausage, crumbled
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup diced onion
- 1/2 cup diced bell pepper
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the thawed hash browns, cooked sausage, cheddar cheese, onion, bell pepper, eggs, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Once the oil is hot, add the hash brown mixture to the skillet, spreading it evenly. Press down gently with a spatula to form a compact layer.
- Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the bottom is golden brown and crispy.
- Carefully flip the hash browns using a large plate or spatula, and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes on the other side until golden brown and cooked through.
- Once cooked, remove from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing into wedges.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, try baking the hash browns in the oven at 425°F for 20-25 minutes instead of flipping them in the skillet.
- You can customize this recipe by adding your favorite vegetables like spinach or mushrooms, or by using different types of cheese such as pepper jack for a spicy kick.
