Crock Pot Sausage breakfast casserole recipes are great to make on a weekend when you want to serve a delicious breakfast but don't want to deal with standing over the stove and cooking.
This Breakfast Casserole has all your favorite breakfast ingredients in it like eggs, sausage, potatoes and cheese.
Like most breakfast casserole recipes you can make it with, chicken, turkey or pork sausage links.
You can use any type of sausage you like. A few ideas are pork sausage links, crumbled ground pork sausage, turkey sausage, or pork sausage patties.
All good breakfast recipes have the standard eggs, cheese, and potatoes.
I used Potatoes O'Brian Hash Browns but you could use any type of hash browns or potatoes you have on hand.
Crock Pot Breakfast Recipes
A slow cooker is a handy way to make breakfast recipes. It comes in handy for family breakfast or brunch on a special occasion. You can make all sorts of breakfasts like Slow Cooker Maple Cinnamon Oatmeal, a Crock Pot Breakfast Quiche or egg, sausage and cheese casseroles.
Or you could use English Muffins instead of potatoes like I did when I made my Crock Pot English Muffin Breakfast Casserole recipe.
Or this Velveeta Cheese Breakfast Casserole recipe could be made in the crock pot instead of baked in a casserole pan.
How to Make Crock Pot Sausage Breakfast Casserole
Ingredients
- breakfast link sausages: chicken, turkey or pork sausage links or even ground sausage
- Potatoes O'Brian Hash Browns or if you don't like the onions and peppers you can use plain hash browns.
- 12 eggs
- milk and sour cream: makes a rich and creamy casserole
- cheese: I like to use sharp cheddar but you could use any of your favorite cheeses. Use a block of cheese and grate it for the best cheesy flavor.
- basic seasonings: parsley, salt and ground pepper
Directions
- Spray the bottom and sides of a casserole crock pot with vegetable spray.
- Sprinkle half the Potatoes O'Brian over the bottom of the crock pot.
- Arrange the link sausage evenly over the hash browns.
- Cover the sausage with remaining hash browns.
- Beat the eggs, sour cream, milk, salt, pepper and parsley in a large bowl.
- Mix the cheese into the egg mixture and pour over the top of the hashbrowns.
- Cover with a layer of paper towels and cook for 3 hours or until the eggs are set in the center.

Recipe Expert Tips
- Ground sausage can be used instead of sausage link. Just cook it and drain it well before spreading over the eggs in the crock pot.
- Other hard cheeses can be used instead of sharp cheddar.
- If you don't like onions and peppers just use regular hash browns in place of the O'Brian ones.

Can this be made in a regular, deep (original) crock pot?

Yes you can make this in an oval crock pot but the cooking times will have to be adjusted. Depending on the size of your crock pot the cooking time will be longer. Enjoy the recipe!
