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