A quick and easy sheet pan breakfast featuring crispy sausage links and perfectly baked eggs with golden edges, ideal for busy mornings or family gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 sausage links (pork or chicken, uncooked)
  • 6 large eggs (room temperature)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional)
  • Chopped fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Line a rimmed baking sheet (about 9×13 inches or larger) with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  3. Arrange the sausage links in a single layer on one half of the baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Toss gently to coat evenly.
  4. Bake the sausage for about 15 minutes until browned and slightly crisp but not burnt.
  5. While the sausage cooks, beat the eggs in a mixing bowl with a pinch of salt and pepper until combined but not frothy.
  6. Remove the pan from the oven and carefully pour the beaten eggs onto the empty side of the pan, keeping them separate from the sausage. Return the pan to the oven immediately.
  7. Bake for another 10-12 minutes or until the eggs are set around the edges but still slightly tender in the center with lightly golden, crispy edges.
  8. Remove from oven and let sit for 2 minutes. Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the eggs and sausage.
  9. Serve immediately while warm and crispy.

Notes

Use room temperature eggs for even baking. Avoid overcrowding the pan to maintain crispiness. Tent with foil if eggs brown too quickly. Substitute turkey sausage for leaner option or plant-based sausage and scrambled tofu for vegan version. Reheat leftovers gently to preserve texture.
