These Creamy Potato Breakfast Bowls are hearty, comforting, and packed with flavor — featuring crispy potatoes, scrambled eggs, creamy cheese sauce, and your favorite breakfast toppings. A perfect make-ahead or weekend brunch dish that everyone will love!


Ingredients

  • 4 medium russet potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
  • 2 green onions, chopped
  • 4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled (optional)
  • Hot sauce, for serving (optional)


Instructions

  1. Cook the Potatoes: Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss diced potatoes with olive oil, salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. Spread evenly on a baking sheet and roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crisp.
  2. Prepare the Eggs: In a bowl, whisk together eggs and milk. Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat and cook eggs slowly, stirring, until soft and creamy. Remove from heat.
  3. Make the Creamy Sauce: In a small saucepan, heat sour cream (or Greek yogurt) and shredded cheddar over low heat, stirring until smooth and melted. Add a splash of milk if needed to thin.
  4. Assemble the Bowls: Divide roasted potatoes among 4 bowls. Top with scrambled eggs, drizzle with creamy cheese sauce, and sprinkle with crumbled bacon and green onions.
  5. Finish with an optional dollop of sour cream or drizzle of hot sauce.
  6. Serve warm and enjoy the cozy, creamy goodness!

Notes

  • Substitute the bacon with turkey bacon, sausage, or sautéed mushrooms for variety.
  • Make it vegetarian by skipping the meat and adding spinach or roasted bell peppers.
  • To save time, use pre-cooked hash browns or leftover roasted potatoes.
  • Great for meal prep — store components separately and assemble fresh before eating.
