Hasbrown Bites
Hashbrown bites are crispy bite size balls of potato, sausage, and cheese. They’re so easy to make and guaranteed to please a crowd for breakfast or a snack.
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons salted butter melted
- 1 pound mild breakfast sausage
- 1 1/2 cup colby-jack cheese grated
- 16 ounce bag frozen hash browns thawed
- 8 ounces cream cheese sliced and softened
- 1 tablespoon parsley finely chopped
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
- In the bowl of a standing mixer or large mixing bowl, mix together flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Drizzle melted butter into flour mixture while mixer is running to form a crumbled mixture.
- Add grated cheese, sausage, hash browns, and cream cheese then beat until fully mixed. Be sure to scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl with a spatula and beat a bit longer to make sure all the flour from the bottom of the bowl has been incorporated.
- Use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to scoop balls of the mixture. Place scoops 1 inch apart on prepared cookie sheets. You can roll the balls in your hands to make them more smooth and compact, but this isn’t necessary.
- Bake for 25 minutes or until lightly browned.
- Remove from oven. Garnish with a bit of finely chopped parsley and drizzle with maple syrup.
- Serve hot.
Notes
TIP: Scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl with a spatula and beat a bit longer to make sure that all the flour gets mixed in.
