This Air Fryer Sausage Breakfast Casserole is absolutely delicious.

I posted a quick picture of this meal on Instagram and immediately my sister was texting me for the recipe. She actually made it that evening and was amazed.
She also informed me that it fits the #Whole30 diet too. I’ve never actually done that, but she has, so I trust she’s correct. Have you tried the #Whole30?
If so, I’d love to hear about your experience. I guess my biggest question mark for that particular plan is that once you are done, most of those I know that do this plan, immediately go back to their old ways of eating.
So I don’t quite understand it for the long term benefits? I do hear it’s good to see which foods you may be intolerant to.
Something to consider for sure.
In the meantime, let’s get to this Air Fryer Sausage Breakfast Casserole.

Can you substitute the hash browns for cauliflower rice?
I haven’t tried that before, so I’m not sure how it would work out.
I cut in half! Delicious!!
Hello! I have the ninja foodi – 9 in 1. Are these instructions for the air crisp function?
Yes this will work in the air crisp of the Ninja Foodi.
I don’t have a basket type air fryer, I have a toaster oven air fryer. Would you suggest using some type of casserole dish to make this recipe?
Thank you in advance for your help.
I would do the same method but use an air fryer safe pan or casserole dish for it.
What is the wattage of your air fryer? I just made the recipe and, unfortunately, it turned out a total disaster! It smelled delicious but could not be salvaged.
The one I use is about 1550 watts.
This was excellent! I used uncooked sausage links cut in half. Loved wrapping my basket plat with foil, made for a very easy clean up.
Made in my Ninja Foodi XL Pro on a sheet pan with about 1 inch deep sides. Next time we will season the hash browns with a little salt and pepper then precook for a couple minutes before assembling the layers. We used what we had on hand for toppings – cheese, sausage and eggs. We will definitely make this again.
Mine didn’t turn out so well. I’m assuming you’re using frozen hash Browns. I’m assuming you’re using frozen hash Browns. I used fresh. I used fresh. The hash Browns never got done. The egg was overdone to my liking. I’m thinking cooking the hash Browns by themselves for 5 minutes. Then adding the sausage and peppers an onion. Cook for 15 minutes. Cook for 15 minutes. Add the egg and cook for another 5. Add the egg and cook for another 5. Any suggestions?
Any suggestions on adjusting times for individual bites? Planning on trying with mini cast iron pans.
