Ingredients

• 8 large eggs
• 1 cup milk
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 pound ground breakfast sausage
• 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese
• 2 cups frozen hash brown potatoes
• 1 medium onion
• 1 medium bell pepper (any color)
• 1 store-bought or homemade pie crust

Directions

Step 1

In a medium skillet, cook the ground breakfast sausage over medium heat until browned and cooked through. Drain any excess grease and set it aside to cool slightly.

Step 2

Finely chop the onion and bell pepper. Sauté them in the same skillet used for the sausage for 5-7 minutes until softened. Remove from heat and let cool.

Step 3

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Step 4

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Prepare a pie dish by lining it with the pie crust, trimming any excess dough around the edges.

Step 5

Evenly layer the frozen hash browns on the bottom of the pie crust. Top the hash browns with the cooked sausage, sautéed vegetables, and shredded cheddar cheese.

Step 6

Pour the egg mixture over the layered ingredients, ensuring it distributes evenly throughout the pie.

Step 7

Cover the pie dish tightly with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and refrigerate overnight to allow the ingredients to meld together.

Step 8

The next morning, remove the pie from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature while the oven preheats to 375°F (190°C).

Step 9

Bake the breakfast pie for 45-50 minutes or until the eggs are set and the top is golden brown.

Step 10

Allow the pie to cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy!
