Description

Crispy, golden sausage hashbrown bites deliver a flavor explosion of comfort and convenience. Packed with savory sausage and potato goodness, these irresistible morsels bring warmth and satisfaction to your breakfast or snack table.


Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients:

  • 1 lb ground breakfast sausage
  • 4 cups shredded frozen hash browns
  • 1 1/2 cups bisquick mix
  • 1 1/2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded

Secondary Ingredients:

  • 8 ounces (226 grams) softened cream cheese

Instructions

  1. Warm the oven to a sizzling 400F (200C), preparing a parchment-lined baking sheet for the culinary adventure ahead.
  2. In a spacious mixing vessel, thoroughly amalgamate the sausage, hashbrowns, and complementary ingredients, ensuring a harmonious blend of flavors and textures.
  3. Craft uniform spherical morsels with gentle, consistent pressure, arranging them methodically across the prepared baking surface.
  4. Slide the tray into the heated oven, allowing the bites to transform for 20-25 minutes, watching for a rich golden-brown exterior that signals perfect doneness.
  5. Remove from the oven and permit a brief cooling interlude, which helps the bites set and intensifies their savory profile.
  6. Serve these delectable nuggets warm, offering a crisp exterior and succulent interior that promises a delightful gustatory experience.

Notes

  • Swap regular sausage with turkey or chicken sausage for a leaner protein option that cuts down on fat without sacrificing flavor.
  • Add finely chopped spinach or kale to boost nutritional value and sneak extra vegetables into the bite-sized treats.
  • Use gluten-free hashbrowns and breadcrumbs to make these bites completely gluten-free and suitable for those with dietary restrictions.
  • Enhance the flavor profile by mixing in herbs like thyme, rosemary, or sage to create a more complex and aromatic bite.
