What Is In A Breakfast Bake?

Dairy – Large eggs are used in this recipe with a bit of cream. Cream whisked into the eggs adds a luxurious creaminess to the dish. For a lower fat option, use milk or even a milk alternative.

Meat – Ground sausage is a classic choice for a breakfast bake. But experiment with other proteins like ham, crumbled bacon, or even vegetarian alternatives like tofu or a meat substitute.

Veggies – Mushrooms, green onions, and spinach are the main veggies in this recipe. But tailor the recipe to your preference by experimenting with different vegetables. Bell peppers, tomatoes, or even roasted sweet potatoes can add variety and color.

Hashbrowns – Use packaged, dehydrated hashbrowns for this recipe, or use the frozen variety if that is what is what you have on hand. Shredded or cubed, either one will work! Leftover potatoes work great too, and are a wonderful way to use up those leftovers.

Cheese – Experiment with different types of cheese, or use your favorite, for the perfect bake! In this recipe, feta adds a tangy kick, while the cheddar brings a rich and melty texture. Why not try mozzarella, Gruyère or even parmesan for more variety.

2. Re-hydrate hash browns as per package directions.
3. Scramble fry sausage in a large skillet. Set aside
4. Saute onions and mushrooms, add hash browns, cooked sausage, and spinach. Fold into baking dish.
5. Sprinkle feta and shredded cheese evenly over mixture.
6. Whisk eggs with cream, season and pour over hash brown mixture.
7. Cover with foil and bake in a 350˚F oven for 30 min. Remove foil, reduce heat to 325˚F and bake 15 min longer, or until egg is no longer jiggly in the center.

Breakfast Bake Tips!

Prep Ahead! Save time in the morning and prep the ingredients the night before. Measure and chop the vegetables, cook the sausage, and whisk the eggs. Keep everything separate to assemble quickly in the morning.

Balance savory ground sausage and cheese with the fresh spinach and green onion. The salty and savory flavors combine to make the best breakfast bake!

Elevate the flavor in your breakfast bake with herbs and spices. Add in fresh herbs such as parsley, cilantro and chives will add freshness, while experimenting with spices such as paprika or cayenne can add depth and warmth.

Avoid rubbery eggs by not over-cooking the eggs. Take the casserole out while the eggs are just slightly jiggly because the eggs will continue to cook after you take the bake out of the oven.

Add a sprinkle of fresh herbs as garnish to brighten up this breakfast bake when serving.

What Goes With A Breakfast Bake?

Complement your breakfast bake with a side dish like fresh fruit with dip, tomato mozzarella basil skewers, or avocado slices. This adds variety to the meal and balances the richness of the bake.

Extra toppings like diced tomatoes or sliced avocados, hot sauce, hollondaise sauce, salsa and guacamole make a more personalized touch.

The best thing about making a breakfast bake is that it is so versatile. Feel free to tailor the recipe to your taste preferences and get creative with ingredients to make it your own.
