Recipe Variations
If you love this recipe as much as we do and want some quick ways to change it up for variety, these little tips will do the trick!
- Make it vegetarian – Skip the bacon entirely or swap it out for a vegetarian bacon.
- Add other veggies – Kick the nutrition up a notch with kale, broccoli, mushrooms, you name it. If you add veggies, be sure to chop them pretty small and toss them in oil before cooking to ensure they cook properly.
- Use another meat – Swap the bacon out for breakfast sausage or ham. OR make a meat lover’s version with all three!
Recipe Step by Step
I am going to highlight a few key steps in the recipe here, but make sure to jump down to the recipe card for comprehensive instructions on how to make Hash Brown Breakfast Bake.
Brush oil over a large sheet pan, then spread the potatoes over the pan in a single layer.
Cut the bacon into small pieces, then layer that evenly over the top of the potatoes. Bake for 12 minutes.
Remove the pan from the oven, then crack the 6 eggs evenly over the top of the hash browns. Sprinkle cheese over top.
Bake for another 8-12 minutes or until the eggs are cooked and the cheese is melted, then serve and enjoy!
Recipe Tips
- Grease the pan – Use a neutral-flavored oil to lightly coat the pan to prevent the potatoes from sticking as they cook. For super easy cleanup, line the pan with aluminum foil or parchment paper before greasing the pan.
- Distribute everything evenly – Be sure that each of your ingredients are distributed evenly across the pan for even cooking and easy serving.
- Bake the eggs to your liking – Prefer a runnier egg? Bake for just 8 minutes. Prefer them more well done? Bake for up to 12 minutes!

Recipe FAQ’s
Why are my sheet pan eggs rubbery?
Rubbery eggs are usually overcooked eggs! Be sure to cook the eggs for just 8-12 minutes (depending on how well done you like them), and no more for that perfect texture!
Do I need to cook the bacon first?
Nope! The bacon gets layered right into the pan along with the other ingredients and cooks perfectly every time.
