Make this hearty make-ahead breakfast casserole for your next indulgent Sunday breakfast, and get ready to make it again and again. With a crispy hash brown topping, sweet & savory breakfast sausage, creamy eggs, and melted cheese, this casserole is like a classic diner breakfast all rolled into one dish. It’s an all-encompassing, versatile breakfast, ideal for hosting brunch for a crowd. Here's everything you need to know:

How to prep:
This casserole is easy to make with simple preparations of all the layers. Start by cooking your favorite breakfast sausage: Remove the casings and crumble it in the pan with a wooden spoon. If using pre-cooked sausage or frozen, be sure to thaw and finely chop the sausage. Then crisp up the hash browns in a skillet until golden brown and set them aside. Tip: Look for the shredded kind in the frozen aisle.

In a casserole pan, spread one layer of crispy hash browns on the bottom of the dish, then add in the cooked sausage, whisked eggs, and a savory combination of cheddar and Gruyère cheese. Top with another layer of hash browns and cheese. Bake until golden brown. The result will be a crowd-pleasing cheesy egg and sausage bake. Serve with maple syrup or hot sauce.

How to make ahead:
One of the best things about this casserole is it can be prepared ahead of time and assembled when you’re ready to bake it. The prepped components and pre-assembled casserole keep in the refrigerator for up to 1 day or up to 1 week in the freezer. This dish also makes excellent leftovers for breakfast burritos or breakfast sandwiches, or simply reheat for a quick and easy breakfast throughout the week.
