Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 6 large eggs
  • 3 cups shredded hashbrowns fresh or frozen
  • 1 cup cooked and crumbled bacon
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup milk
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Step-by-Step Instructions

  • Preheat the oven: Set it to 375°F (190°C) and grease your baking dish with non-stick spray.
  • Prepare the hashbrowns: If using frozen hashbrowns, thaw and pat them dry to remove excess moisture.
  • Layer the ingredients: Spread the hashbrowns evenly in the baking dish. Sprinkle the crumbled bacon and shredded cheese on top.
  • Whisk the eggs: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  • Pour the egg mixture: Slowly pour it over the hashbrown, bacon, and cheese layers, ensuring even coverage.
  • Bake the casserole: Place the dish in the oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the top is golden.
  • Cool and serve: Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving

Notes

  1. Drain the bacon: After cooking, ensure you drain excess grease to avoid a soggy casserole.
  2. Use fresh ingredients: Fresh hashbrowns and eggs make a noticeable difference in flavor.
  3. Check for doneness: Insert a knife in the center; it should come out clean when the casserole is done.
  4. Cover if needed: If the top browns too quickly, cover with foil during the last 10 minutes of baking.
