Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb breakfast sausage
  • 6 large eggs
  • 2 cups milk
  • 1 tsp dry mustard
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 4 cups frozen shredded hash browns thawed
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

Equipment

  • Skillet
  • 9x13-inch baking dish
  • Bowl and whisk

Method
 

  1. In a skillet over medium heat, brown the sausage, breaking it up; drain well.
  2. Spread the thawed hash browns in a greased 9x13-inch baking dish. Layer the sausage over the hash browns, then sprinkle the cheddar evenly on top.
  3. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, dry mustard, salt, and pepper. Pour over the layers. Cover and refrigerate overnight (or at least 4 hours).
  4. Bake at 350°F for 50–60 minutes, until set in the center and golden on top. Rest 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

Make it ahead: refrigerate overnight (or at least 4 hours) before baking. Thaw the hash browns before layering.
