Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 3 cups frozen shredded hashbrowns (thawed and drained)
- 1/2 pound breakfast sausage (cooked and crumbled)
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 3 large eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Chopped green onions for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Muffin Tin: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a mini muffin tin to prevent sticking.
- Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix together the thawed and drained hashbrowns, cooked sausage, cheddar cheese, Parmesan cheese, eggs, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until thoroughly combined.
- Fill Muffin Tin: Spoon the mixture evenly into the prepared mini muffin tin, pressing down slightly with the back of a spoon to compact the mixture for firm bites.
- Bake: Place the mini muffin tin in the oven and bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the bites are set through.
- Cool and Serve: Let the sausage hashbrown bites cool in the pan for 5 minutes before carefully removing them. Garnish with chopped green onions if desired and serve warm.
Notes
- You can swap in turkey sausage for a lighter option or add diced bell peppers for extra flavor and color.
- These bites freeze well—just reheat in the oven or microwave before serving.
