Air Fryer Sausage Breakfast Bites
These Air Fryer Sausage Breakfast Bites are a quick and delicious way to start your day! Packed with eggs, cheese, and your favorite breakfast fillings, they’re crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.
Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground Breakfast Sausage
- 3 Cups Shredded Hash Brown Potatoes
- 2 ¾ Cups Shredded Cheddar Cheese Divided
- 1 teaspoon Onion Powder
- ½ teaspoon Salt
- ½ teaspoon Pepper
- 1 teaspoon Olive Oil
- 12 Eggs
- Parsley For Garnish
Instructions
- Divide the sausage meat into 12 patties.
- Place the sausage patties into the air fryer basket at 350° for 10 minutes, when cooked, set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the hash browns, 2 cups of shredded cheese, garlic salt, salt and pepper, and oil.
- Add cooking spray to the egg muffin liners. Place 2-3 tablespoons of hash brown mixture in the jumbo muffin liners.
- Place egg mold liners in the air fryer basket and cook at 400° for 10 minutes or until they start to brown and crisp up.
- Place one sausage patty into each hashbrown cup and press down to seat it. Crack one egg over each cup and sprinkle with cheese. Repeat for every cup.
- Continue to cook at 350° for 10 minutes or less for a softer yolk.
- Remove the egg bites from the air fryer. Garnish with parsley and serve egg bites with hot sauce, gravy, or ketchup.
Notes
- Use jumbo muffin liners or silicone molds to contain the layers.
- Adjust cook time for yolk doneness—less time = soft yolk, more time = set.
- Double the batch for freezer meal prep—you’ll thank yourself later.
- Reheat in air fryer at 350°F for 5–6 minutes for crisp, fresh-tasting leftovers.
