Introduction: Breakfast Bacon Balls
All you favorite breakfast foods rolled into one... with bacon.
Step 1: Things You Will Need
1 Package of thick sliced bacon ( I used turkey bacon)
6 Links breakfast sausage
3 Eggs
2 Hash brown patties
1 Muffin pan
1 cup of shredded cheese ( I used a Pepper jack/Havarti Blend)
Maple Syrup (optional)
Step 2: Prep Work
1. Cut sausage links into little chunks and cook in frying pan on medium heat until browned.
2. Cut hash browns into little chunks.
3. Beat eggs
4. Shred cheese if needed.
Step 3: Assembly
1. Place 1 strip of bacon into the hole of the muffin pan so that it sits flat inside and the edges rest over
the lip of the hole .
2. Add a second piece of bacon into the pan so that it makes a cross shape. (if the bacon doesn't
completely cover the muffin hole, and more strips until it does)
3. Place a small amount of egg into bacon cup (about 1 or 2 tablespoons).
4. Place a layer of sausage chunks in the bottom of the bacon cup.
5. Add a pinch of cheese on top of sausage.
6. Add a large spoonful of egg on top of cheese.
7. Place a layer of hash brown chunks on top of egg & cheese .
8. Add another large spoonful of egg on top of hash browns.
9. Add another pinch of cheese on top of everything.
10. Starting with the first (and lowest) piece of bacon placed into the cup, Fold the ends over the
cheese in a circular order until they have all been folded over the top. (If the ends don't want to
stay put, use a toothpick to pin them down.)
11. Bake in oven at 400 degrees for about 25 minutes (or until bacon is crisp), Then remove from tray, and let cool for 5 minutes.
12. Serve with maple syrup (optional)

Well, Good For you!!! You know what, you have inspired me to change my ways. I'm going to delete all my instuctables that have turkey bacon in them just for you. That's just how special you are (insert sarcasm here.)

My daughter and I make it a point to cook breakfast together every Saturday or Sunday. Our last adventure was making banana crepes with amped-up bisquick. (Topped with whipped cream, sprinkles and a drizzle of strawberry syrup!). I'll definitely be making this the upcoming weekend's treat!

Sounds fun. If your in to the breakfast thing, you should check out my Hawaiian Banana French Toast.It's quick and easy, and melts in your mouth. I also made an Extremely Ultimate Breakfast Sandwich if you really want to go crazy with it!! Hope you and your daughter have fun!!!

Wow, I think my dinner plans just changed. I've got bulk breakfast sausage and frozen loose hashbrowns instead of the patties, but I believe those modifications (and maybe another one or two...) will only enhance. :^)

Well upgrades are always a plus, you should comment again to tell me what ideas you have came up with. Thanks

Okay, so I followed your instructions except:
1) I added some heavy cream when I whisked the eggs.
2) I browned some bulk (turkey) breakfast sausage with the frozen hashbrowns. I added some onion, garlic, jalapeño, red bell pepper tossed in about halfway through the browning time.
Topped the first dollop of egg mixture with some of that and then proceeded with your recipe to finish.
Delicious! Everybody wanted more. Thanks, these were fun to make and eat!
