Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 large eggs

  • 2 cups shredded cheese (cheddar or your choice)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: chopped green onions for garnish

Instructions

  2. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until combined.
  3. Layer the hash browns evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
  4. Sprinkle crumbled bacon and shredded cheese over the hash browns.
  5. Pour the egg mixture evenly over everything in the dish.

Notes

For an extra crispy top, broil for the last 2-3 minutes of baking. Prep the night before to save time in the morning.
