This dish is a fusion of classic breakfast flavors like crispy tater tots, savory sausage gravy, and perfectly cooked eggs, making it an irresistible option for any brunch or breakfast gathering.

Ingredients

Scale

 

  • 1 pound breakfast sausage: Feel free to use turkey sausage for a lighter option.
  • 2 tablespoons butter: Can be substituted with olive oil for a healthier twist.
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour: If gluten-free, use almond or oat flour.
  • 2 cups milk: Substitute with dairy-free options like almond or oat milk.
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 cups frozen tater tots: Sweet potato tots work well too.
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese: Opt for dairy-free cheese if needed.
  • Chopped fresh chives for garnish (optional)

Instructions

 

  1. Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Cook the sausage: In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage until browned and fully cooked. Once done, remove from the skillet and set aside.
  3. Prepare the gravy: Using the same skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add 1/4 cup flour and whisk until smooth.
  4. Make the sauce: Slowly pour in 2 cups of milk, whisking constantly until the mixture thickens and starts to simmer. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. Combine: Return the sausage to the skillet, stirring until well combined.
  6. Bake the tots: Spread the frozen tater tots in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
  7. Fry the eggs: While the tots bake, fry the eggs to your desired doneness.
  8. Assemble the bowls: Divide the crispy tater tots among four serving bowls. Top each with a generous portion of sausage gravy, a fried egg, and a handful of shredded cheddar cheese.
  9. Garnish and serve: Sprinkle with chopped chives for an added burst of flavor and serve hot.

Equipment

Notes

  1. Use high-quality sausage: For a richer, more savory flavor, opt for premium breakfast sausage.
  2. Fresh herbs add flavor: If you have fresh parsley or thyme on hand, they make excellent additions to the gravy.
  3. Make it spicy: Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the gravy for a little kick.
  4. Get creative with cheese: Swap out cheddar for pepper jack or mozzarella for a different flavor profile.
