    🔪 How To Make Hashbrown Sausage Bacon Egg Casserole

    It may seem like there are a lot of steps to make this casserole, but they are all very simple! Take out a 9X13 baking dish, large skillet, and mixing bowl.

    This delicious casserole yields about 10 servings. You will be able to serve a large crowd and may even have delicious leftovers for the next day!

    Prepare The Ingredients

    Process image 2 showing sauteing the onion and garlic.
    Process image 3 showing browning the sausage.
    Process image 4 showing cooking the bell peppers.
    Process image 5 showing adding the hashbrowns.
    1. Prep. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease or spray a 9X13 baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
    2. Cook bacon. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook 4 slices of bacon until crispy, then remove the bacon from the skillet. Chop bacon slices and set aside to add as a topping later.
    3. Brown sausage. Saute ½ cup of onion for 1-2 minutes, add 2 teaspoons of garlic and saute for 30 seconds, until soft. Add the 1 pound of sausage and cook until browned (crumble the sausage as you are cooking). Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
    4. Sear hashbrowns. Add the ½ cup of diced red bell peppers and 20 ounces of hashbrowns to the skillet and saute for 30 seconds to a minute, then add the refrigerated hashbrowns and sear for 5 minutes.

    Assemble & Bake

    Process image 9 showing the egg mixture combined.
    Process image 10 showing the egg mixture layered on.
    Process image 11 showing adding cheese and bacon.
    1. Layer casserole. Transfer the seared hashbrowns to a baking dish and spread evenly with a spatula to make the first layer of the casserole. Transfer the cooked sausage to the baking dish to make the second layer.
    2. Mix ingredients. In a large mixing bowl, whisk the 6 large eggs and pour in the ¼ cup of milk. Add ½ cup of sour cream, ½ teaspoon of salt, 1 tablespoon of freeze-dried chives, and half of the grated 3 cups of cheddar cheese. Mix until well combined and pour over the sausage. Add the remaining cheddar cheese and chopped bacon on top.
    3. Bake. Cover the casserole dish with foil. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 40 minutes. Remove foil and continue to bake uncovered for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the eggs have set.
    4. Serve. Remove from the oven when done, slice, and serve immediately.

    This cheesy hashbrown sausage casserole is extra tasty when you add your favorite hot sauce on top. Serve this casserole with a sweet breakfast side like my blueberry baked donuts if you want to balance out the savoriness! Enjoy!

    💭 Angela's Tips & Recipe Notes

    • Season with fresh ground pepper when serving as it can turn the eggs a grey color if you add it before cooking.
    • When choosing hash browns, I like to use the 20-ounce package of Simply Potatoes brand fresh hash browns. You may use frozen hashbrowns too, just make sure that they are fully thawed.
    • To make this casserole ahead of time, you can assemble it the night before, then add the cheese and bake it in the morning.

    🥡 Storage & Reheating

    Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4-5 days.

    Wrap leftovers tightly with plastic wrap and place them in an airtight freezer storage container for 2-3 months. Thaw any frozen leftovers in the fridge overnight before heating. 

    Reheating Hashbrown Sausage Bacon Egg Casserole

    Microwave individual slices for 1-2 minutes or until heated all the way through. If you need to heat the entire casserole, cover the dish with foil and bake at 375°F (190°C) until warmed to your satisfaction.

    ❓ FAQ

    Do I Have To Brown Sausage Before Assembling Casserole?

    Yes. It is important to brown the sausage before assembling your casserole so that the meat is thoroughly cooked and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).

    Why Is My Casserole Soggy?

    If this happens and you used frozen hashbrowns, it most likely means that there was too much liquid in your thawed hashbrowns or they weren't thawed enough. Drain any excess liquid present when using thawed hashbrowns in this dish.

    What Can I Serve With This Hash Brown Casserole?

    If you are wanting something light to serve along with this hearty casserole, I would recommend a fresh fruit salad or overnight oats with yogurt! However, if you are feeding a larger crowd and want something more filling, my apple banana bread, strawberry yogurt muffins, or lemon raspberry baked donuts would be delicious too!
