Description
A simple, hearty, one-pan breakfast casserole featuring crispy tater tots, eggs, sausage, and lots of cheese. Assemble it the night before for an easy morning bake.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (32 ounce) bag frozen tater tots
- 1 pound breakfast sausage, cooked and drained
- 1 cup chopped onion
- 1 (10.5 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 6 large eggs
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
- Arrange the frozen tater tots in a single layer across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
- In a large bowl, combine the cooked sausage, chopped onion, cream of mushroom soup, milk, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs until blended. Stir the eggs into the sausage mixture.
- Pour the egg and sausage mixture evenly over the layer of tater tots.
- Sprinkle 1 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese over the top of the casserole mixture.
- Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil. Bake for 45 minutes.
- Remove the foil and sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of cheese over the top. Bake uncovered for another 10 to 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the eggs are set.
- Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before cutting and serving.
Notes
- For a make-ahead option, assemble the entire casserole through step 5, cover tightly, and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. Add 10 minutes to the covered baking time if baking directly from the refrigerator.
- You can substitute cooked bacon for the sausage if you prefer.
- If you want crispier tots on top, skip the cheese topping for the last 15 minutes and add it only for the last 5 minutes of baking.
