Ingredients
Scale
Main Protein:
- 1 pound ground breakfast sausage
Potato and Cheese Base:
- 4 cups frozen shredded hash browns
- 8 ounces (226 grams) cream cheese, softened
- 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese
Binding Ingredient:
- 1.5 cups Bisquick
Instructions
- Warm the oven to a precise 400°F, meticulously coating a baking dish or muffin tray with cooking spray to ensure effortless release of the hashbrown bites.
- Create a flavor-packed mixture by thoroughly blending cream cheese, crumbled sausage, frozen shredded potatoes, Bisquick, and sharp cheddar in a spacious mixing bowl until ingredients are uniformly incorporated.
- Craft compact, round morsels using your hands, aiming for bite-sized spheres approximately one inch in diameter that promise perfect handheld enjoyment.
- Strategically position the assembled bites on the prepared baking surface, maintaining a deliberate spacing between each morsel to promote optimal crispiness and even browning.
- Transfer the tray to the preheated oven, allowing the bites to transform for 20-25 minutes until they develop a rich golden exterior and possess a firm, fully cooked internal texture.
- Remove from the oven and let the hashbrown sausage bites rest momentarily, allowing them to stabilize and achieve maximum flavor concentration before serving as an irresistible appetizer or snack.
