Ingredients
Scale

- 1 large egg
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Spray a muffin tin with cooking spray or line with silicone muffin liners.
- In a large skillet, cook the sausage over medium heat, breaking it up with a spatula until fully cooked and browned. Drain any excess fat and set aside to cool slightly.
- In a large bowl, combine the cooked sausage, thawed hashbrowns, shredded cheddar cheese, green onions, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix everything together until well combined.
- Scoop the mixture into the prepared muffin tin, pressing it down gently to form small bites.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the hashbrowns are crispy and golden brown on top.
- Let the bites cool for a few minutes before carefully removing them from the muffin tin.
- Serve warm, and enjoy!
Notes
- For a spicier bite, you can use hot sausage or add some red pepper flakes to the mixture.
- If you prefer, you can swap out the cheddar cheese for a different type like mozzarella or pepper jack.
- These bites make a great breakfast or a fun appetizer for parties!
