Sheet Pan Breakfast Bake
No need to dirty up another pan! You’ll have a FULL BREAKFAST with eggs, bacon and cheesy crisp hash browns on ONE SINGLE PAN!
Guys.
I’m finally coming home.
Don’t get me wrong.
It’s been an amazing three weeks.
Eating. Traveling.
And well.
Basically, just eating, really.
But it’s time to get home to Butters.
And to this breakfast bake.
Because I don’t think I had any kind of hash browns the last few weeks here in Asia.
No.
Just dumplings and noodles.
So I’ll need this immediately.
An All-American breakfast on a SINGLE sheet pan.
Honestly, though, you could give me 18 pans to clean up.
I don’t mind.
I just want to faceplant myself immediately into these cheesy, crisp hash browns the minute I touchdown in Los Angeles.
Priorities, guys.
Sheet Pan Breakfast Bake
Ingredients
- 1 20-ounce package refrigerated hash brown potatoes
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ¼ teaspoon dried thyme
- ¼ teaspoon dried basil
- ¼ teaspoon dried oregano
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 12 slices bacon
- 6 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly oil a baking sheet or coat with nonstick spray.
- Place hashbrowns in a single layer onto the prepared baking sheet. Stir in butter, olive oil, thyme, basil, oregano and garlic powder and gently toss to combine; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Sprinkle with cheese.
- Place into oven and bake until the edges begin to brown, about 20-25 minutes.

It really was great once I adjusted all cooking times. I know it takes bacon about 20 mins in my oven at 400, but I still followed the recipe thinking it would work and it didn’t. Next time I think I’ll precook the bacon to almost done (everyone in my family likes extra crispy bacon) And then follow the recipe as shows. It was very delicious, though! Great recipe! Just adjust the bacon to what you know your oven cooks at!
Might want check your oven with a thermometer. I frequently bake turkey bacon at 400.
Very easy to make and everyone loved it. One note, I used Canadian Bacon (CB) instead of regular bacon. Place the eggs on top of each piece of CB. Everything cooked perfectly and actually made it easier to serve!
Great idea and so delish! I par cook my bacon for 10 min in the microwave (cover with paper towel). Awesome recipe, especially for Christmas morning when you have company sleeping over.
has anybody tried sausage instead of bacon?
The potatoes were delicious! Cooking time for those was great. However, I’d add the bacon earlier and add the eggs in the last few minutes of cooking. My bacon was totally raw in the cooking time indicated, so I had to cook the dish longer causing the eggs to be overcooked and rubbery. Maybe I could cook the bacon partially before adding, but that would defeat the purpose of a one sheet meal. LOL. Thanks for sharing your recipe.
Totally agree on the bacon needing more time to cook!!
Delicious! A weekly favorite at our house!
AHmazing!! It went so fast (3 young adult men) that if my husband hadn’t walked into the kitchen when he did we wouldn’t have gotten any. They CLEANED it up- one even actually licked his plate. Should have read the comments first (which I usually do), si I overlooked the eggs just a bit trying to get the bacon done. Next time I’ll just add it on top of the hash browns- there was not any excess of grease and the casserole itself wasn’t greasy. I’m already being asked to make another one- thanks so much for sharing an easy, stupendously yummy b’fast casserole!❤️❤️❤️
This was absolutely amazing! A month later family and guests are still talking about it! Christmas breakfast this today! Thank you!
Wow. I’m just really glad this was not a complicated recipe! Wow people. Do any of you have any judgement/troubleshooting skills??? It’s not rocket science.
It was a great recipe. Thanks!

Delicious!!! We did crisp our bacon up a bit more under the broiler and then add back to the tray. Had this for brunch yesterday and will be having again this weekend!
Love that!
First time making this, I’ve caused a big problem ? Um like one pig waiting for another event. No I got some I pushed and shoved my way to heavenly food! 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ For sure!
The timing on this recipe is really off. Very disappointing – if you make it as stated you’ll have raw bacon and over cooked eggs (not nice runny yolks in video). Cooked potatoes for 20, then put just the bacon on. After 20 minutes it was still not cooked (not even talking not crispy, but not cooked). I then rearranged the bacon to try to get the cris-crossed parts of bacon to not be raw and nestled in the eggs. In 10 minutes (low end of the suggested time here!!) the eggs were completely overcooked, may as well have been hard boiled. Potatoes burned because no of extra time. Bacon still blubbery and grossly undercooked in the spots where it crossed over another’s piece. I am an experienced cook, so I should have known better on all steps instead of just the one I changed. I used Oscar Meyer bacon (not thick cut) – idk of maybe lean center cut was used in video and then not specified in recipe. Overall a very disappointing experience as food was not done to our liking (or as expectedly based on video) and most of it went to waste. I love the idea of this one pan breakfast, but this needs many modifications.
Tara, I am sorry that this recipe did not turn out the way you had imagined. However, experienced cook or not, I recommend investing in an in-oven thermometer for reliable, consistent results and to make sure your oven temperature is matched to what it is set. Bacon should not take 20 minutes to cook in the oven!
You can read more about it here. Hope that helps!
I appreciate the reply! I’m still a little confused by this. I used to have an oven thermometer but took it out about 6 months ago cause it always read accurately. I’ll try again. If my oven was running too low though wouldn’t my eggs have not overcooked st 10 minutes then? In the video they’re runny and look perfect 🙂 Most other bacon recipes online with consistent reviews state 15-20 minutes for bacon (depending on desired doneness) at 400 degrees. Was it center cut bacon that you use? Because I did have trouble fitting it on my sheet pan as well, so maybe my pieces we’re larger. I’m determined to make this work next time 🙂
I will be trying this soon. Always read the comments first. My first thought after reading the instructions was possible undercooked bacon. I will be using thin cut bacon and will precook for 2 or 3 minutes in the microwave before adding to sheet pan with the eggs. Another idea is to use slices of already cooked bacon, say Hormel. I think this would work beautifully and the eggs would not be overcooked.
I made this recipe for breakfast this morning. Love to try new recipes and love this site! I also like to make notes and adjustments if necessary and share them with other cooks. For me, the recipe was very good. I used frozen hash browns and par-cooked the bacon in a skillet, not crisp but past raw. (I’m saving bacon grease for another recipe so the extra pan didn’t bother me at all. 🙂 ) I timed the last step 3 minutes longer (15 minutes) thinking I would not like runny eggs. Next time I’ll not do that. The eggs were just a bit dry after that longer bake. A runnier yolk would have been better. Instead of the individual spices I used Mrs. Dash all over.
Hubby and I just tried this with Mexican blend hash browns with jalapeños and peppers. Topped with little bit of sour cream and salsa. Most amazing thing ever!
Have you ever made this with freshly made hash browns and not store bought enough.
Great Idea! i used parchment paper on the cookie sheet to prevent sticking and added peppers and onions! definitly will be making this again!
Would the work with fresh potatoes?
Cooking time will vary – as always, please use your best judgment regarding substitutions and modifications.
I’m just wondering – after you make the wells, do you put the bacon around the edges to make a border for the eggs, in a crisscross or any way you want?
I recommend a crisscross.
Made this morning. Par-cooked 4 slices of bacon on the sheet pan for 10 minutes as I was only cooking for 2, then removed to a plate. Stirred the potato mixture into the bacon fat (I skipped the olive oil), then proceeded with the recipe as written. It was delicious. Will be a regular weekend breakfast around my house
The looks amazing. Great idea, three breakfast into one. Welcome back, and hope you had a fabulous three weeks vacation. I am sure you will need a vacation now that you are home. A vacation just to relax, unwind, and do nothing
