Cheesy Breakfast Casserole with Bacon & Eggs
Description
Cheesy Breakfast Casserole with Bacon & Eggs begins by layering frozen hash brown patties at the bottom of a baking dish. An egg mixture seasoned with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper is poured over the potatoes, followed by a layer of crisp cooked bacon pieces and shredded cheddar cheese on top. Baking at 350°F melts the cheese and cooks the eggs until set, forming a cohesive casserole with a slightly crisp surface and tender interior.
This casserole combines textures of crispy potatoes, creamy eggs, smoky bacon, and melted sharp cheddar cheese. It is ideal for a filling breakfast or brunch, sliced into portions and served warm. The seasoning balances the savory ingredients without overpowering them.
Ingredients
- 4 hashbrown patties frozen
- 5 egg
- ¼ cup milk
- ⅛ teaspoon garlic powder
- ⅛ teaspoon onion powder
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
- 6 lices Bacon cooked crispy and crumbled
- 1 cup cheddar cheese shredded
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat the inside of an 8-inch x 8-inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
- Layer the hash brown patties on the bottom of your baking dish. You will need to break one of them up to make them all fit. (see picture above)
- In a medium bowl, beat the eggs with the milk, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until well combined. Pour eggs over the hash brown patties.
- Sprinkle cooked bacon over the eggs. Then sprinkle cheddar cheese over the bacon.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is beginning to brown and center is set. (The casserole no longer looks wet in the center.)
- Remove from the oven and cool on a wire rack for about 5 minutes. Cut into 6 slices and serve warm.
