Ingredients for Crack Breakfast Casserole
These ingredients are basic and won’t break the bank. Make sure you set your cream cheese out so it is at room temperature when you’re ready to put it together. For exact measurements, scroll to the recipe card at the bottom of the post.
Pork Sausage: A hearty and flavorful protein source that adds richness to the dish. Bacon: Adds a crispy texture and smokey meaty flavor. Room Temperature Cream Cheese: Provides a smooth, creamy texture and tangy, cheesy flavor that can’t be beat. Sour Cream: Adds to the tangy smoothness to complement the salty meats. Whole Milk: Provides moisture for the dish to stay creamy and delicious. Eggs: Binds everything together and adds more protein and flavor. Dry Ranch Seasoning Mix: This is what makes this a “crack” recipe. So much flavor! Seasonings: Your casserole will be packed with incredible flavor by using Onion Powder, Garlic Powder, Salt, and Black Pepper Frozen Hashbrowns: The sturdy base that holds everything up. Shredded Cheddar Cheese: Gives the casserole a nice melty cheesy inside and a wonderfully browned cheese crust on top.
How to Make Crack Breakfast Casserole
This recipe comes together fairly quickly. You just need to brown your meats, mix everything together, and let the oven do the work. It’s great to prepare ahead of time so you can throw it in the oven when you’re ready to eat it!
Meat: You can use all sausage or all bacon, but I like the mix. Vegetables: You can add vegetables to this casserole, like diced bell peppers, broccoli, spinach, or any of your favorites. Just add the vegetables in with the hash browns.
Refrigerate: Store leftovers in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Freeze: Store leftovers in the freezer in an airtight freezer-safe container for up to 2 months. Make Ahead: This casserole can be assembled, covered tightly with a lid or plastic wrap, and kept in the fridge overnight, and baked fresh in the morning. You can assemble up to 24 hours in advance.
