Ingredients

  • 8 oz maple chicken sausage chopped
  • 2 cups frozen hashbrowns
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese shredded
  • 1/2 cup diced bell pepper optional

Instructions

Enable step-by-step mode
  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • Brown sausage in a skillet over medium heat for 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Whisk eggs, cottage cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper in a large bowl.
  • Stir in sausage, hashbrowns, cheddar, and bell pepper if using.
  • Pour into the baking dish and spread evenly.
  • Bake 30 to 35 minutes, until set and lightly golden. Rest 10 minutes before slicing.

Notes

Freezer storage: Best baked first. Cool completely, slice, wrap individual pieces, and freeze up to 3 months. Reheat from frozen 60 to 90 seconds in the microwave.
Make ahead: Assemble unbaked the night before and refrigerate, then bake in the morning with about 5 extra minutes.
Gluten free: Naturally gluten free with no bread or flour. Verify sausage and hashbrown labels.
Sausage swaps: Turkey or regular breakfast sausage work. Add a small drizzle of maple syrup to the eggs if using plain sausage.
