Easy Breakfast Casserole Recipe
Description
The Easy Breakfast Casserole Recipe starts by mixing frozen shredded potatoes with cubed ham and shredded sharp cheddar cheese. This combination is spread evenly in a butter- or sprayed cooking pan to prevent sticking. In the same bowl, beaten eggs are combined with milk and seasoning, then poured over the potato mixture. Pressing everything down helps the layers bind during baking. The casserole is baked uncovered at 350°F for about one hour until the egg custard is fully set and the edges become golden brown, offering textural contrast. The result is a warm, savory dish with creamy eggs, tender potatoes, melty cheese, and flavorful ham, suitable for feeding a group or meal prep.
Ingredients
- 24 oz. hash browns about 8 cups, frozen
- 16 oz. ham cubed
- 8 oz. cheddar cheese shredded, sharp
- 12 egg large
- 1 cup milk -I used skim
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper ground
- cooking spray
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Add the frozen potatoes, ham, and cheese to a large bowl. Toss to combine. Pour the mixture into a 9 x 13 inch baking dish that has been sprayed with cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, whisk the eggs with the milk, salt, and pepper (I use the same bowl from step 1).
- Pour the egg mixture over the hash brown mixture. Pat everything down with the back of a wooden spoon.
- Bake for one hour, uncovered. The center should be set and the edges should be golden brown.
