Description

This Golden Ham and Hashbrown Breakfast is cozy, filling, and exactly what I make when mornings feel busy. It’s simple, forgiving, and smells incredible while it bakes.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 4 cups frozen Hashbrowns, thawed and lightly squeezed dry
  • 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese, divided
  • 500 g cooked ham, cubed
  • 12 spring onions, finely chopped
  • 6 XL eggs, well beaten
  • 350 ml evaporated milk
  • 1/2 tsp salt, plus extra to taste
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • Butter or cooking spray, for greasing

Instructions

  1. Generously grease a 3 L rectangular baking dish with butter or cooking spray so nothing sticks later.
  2. Spread the 4 cups of thawed frozen Hashbrowns evenly across the bottom of the dish, breaking up any clumps.
  3. Sprinkle over 1 1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese, followed by the 500 g cubed cooked ham and the 12 chopped spring onions.
  4. In a bowl, whisk together the 6 XL beaten eggs, 350 ml evaporated milk, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper until smooth.
  5. Slowly pour the egg mixture over the Hashbrowns and fillings, gently pressing everything down so it’s mostly covered.
  6. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded sharp cheddar cheese over the top.
  7. Cover tightly and refrigerate overnight, so the flavors settle, and the eggs soak in properly.
  8. The next day, preheat the oven to 350°F.
  9. Bake covered for 30 minutes, then uncover and bake another 10 to 20 minutes until the center is set and the top is lightly golden.
  10. Let the casserole rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
