Ingredients

Ingredients List

  • 1 pound hot pork sausage

  • 1 cup milk

  • 3 large eggs, beaten

  • 1 ½ teaspoons salt, divided

  • ½ (30 ounce) package frozen hash brown potatoes, thawed

  • 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper


Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch square baking dish or a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate.

  2. Cook sausage in a large skillet over medium-high heat until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard grease.

  3. Whisk milk, eggs, and 1 teaspoon salt together in a bowl.

  4. Transfer cooked sausage to a large bowl. Add hash browns, Cheddar, pepper, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and stir to combine. Spread in an even layer in the prepared baking dish, then pour egg mixture evenly over top.

  5. Bake in the preheated oven until bubbling and golden, about 45 minutes.

To Make Ahead:

Keep the sausage and hash brown mixture separate from the egg mixture, and refrigerate both overnight. Assemble the casserole in the morning just before baking. You might need to cook it a little longer if it's cold from the fridge.
