Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
- In a large skillet, cook the breakfast sausage over medium heat until browned, about 8-10 minutes. Drain excess grease.
- Reduce heat to low, add softened cream cheese, and stir until melted and blended with the sausage.
- Spread an even layer of thawed hashbrowns in the baking dish, season with salt and pepper, and drizzle with melted butter.
- Spoon the sausage and cream cheese mixture evenly over the hashbrowns.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Pour the egg mixture over the casserole, ensuring all layers are covered.
- Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top.
- Bake uncovered for 40-45 minutes until eggs are set and cheese is bubbly and golden.
- Let cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped green onions if desired.

Notes
For a crisper base, pre-bake the hashbrowns for 10 minutes prior to layering. You can also customize with bell peppers or jalapeños.
