Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients
- 2 cups frozen shredded hashbrowns, thawed and patted dry
- 1/2 pound breakfast sausage (pork or turkey)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Nonstick cooking spray or oil for greasing the pan
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a mini muffin tin with nonstick spray or oil to prevent sticking.
- Cook Sausage: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage until browned and fully cooked, breaking it into small crumbles. Once done, drain any excess grease and set the sausage aside.
- Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the thawed and dried shredded hashbrowns, cooked sausage crumbles, shredded cheddar cheese, eggs, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly until all components are evenly incorporated.
- Fill Muffin Tin: Scoop the mixture evenly into the prepared mini muffin tin cups, pressing down gently to compact the mixture and shape the bites.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the bites are fully set.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the hashbrown bites to cool slightly in the tin before removing. Serve warm or at room temperature for a crowd-pleasing appetizer or snack.
Notes
- You can make these ahead of time and reheat in the oven or microwave for convenience.
- Add diced bell peppers or green onions to the mixture for extra flavor and colorful presentation.
