Best Cheesy Breakfast Potatoes Recipes

BREAKFAST POTATOES {CRISPY OVEN BAKED}

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Spray a rimmed 18 by 13-inch baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray.
• Place potatoes in a mound in center of baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil.
• Sprinkle potatoes with salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika and onion powder. Toss well to evenly coat in oil and spices.
• Spread potatoes even into a single layer. Bake in center of preheated oven 15 minutes.
• Remove from oven, toss and continue to bake until just tender, about 15 minutes longer.
• Move oven rack about 5-inches from broiler.
• Broil potatoes about 2 - 3 minutes until slightly browned (keep a close eye on them and don't walk away they can brown quickly!).
• Remove and toss, continue to broil until golden brown and crisp on opposite side a minute or two longer. Serve warm.

CRISPY CHEESE AND BACON POTATOES

Steps:

• COOK THE BACON: Spread the bacon strips out across a large rimmed baking sheet pan and place on the middle rack of a COLD oven. Set the temperature to 400 degrees. Set a timer for 16 minutes and check the bacon. Remove it from the oven when it is as crisp or crunchy as you like. I remove ours at 18 minutes and it's a great balance of chewy crunch. If you like your bacon crispy enough to crumble, you will probably want to cook it another minute past that.
• COOK THE POTATOES: While the bacon is cooking, peel and chop the potatoes. Transfer the bacon to a paper towel lined plate to drain. There should be 2-3 tablespoons of bacon grease left on the sheet pan. (If there is more than that, drain off a bit.) Put the potatoes on the pan and toss with tongs to thoroughly coat them in the bacon grease. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Spread the potatoes out in a single layer and bake for 20 minutes, stir well and bake an additional 20 minutes. Stir again, making sure that none of the potatoes are sticking to the tray. Bake another 15 minutes.
• Chop the bacon into small pieces. Remove the potatoes from the oven, stir again and sprinkle generously with shredded cheese and chopped bacon. Return the tray to the oven and bake an additional 2-3 minutes, until the cheese has melted. Top with sliced green onions just before serving. Enjoy!
