Preheat Oven:

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray or oil.

Prepare the Hash Brown Cups:

In a large bowl, mix together the thawed hash browns, shredded cheddar cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and olive oil or melted butter until well combined.

Divide the hash brown mixture evenly among the 12 muffin cups. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of each cup to form a nest.

Bake the Hash Brown Cups:

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the hash browns are golden brown and crispy.

Prepare the Filling:

In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Add the chopped cooked bacon, sausage, or ham, diced bell peppers, green onions, and shredded cheese to the egg mixture. Stir to combine.

Fill the Hash Brown Cups:

Remove the hash brown cups from the oven. Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C).

Carefully pour the egg mixture into each hash brown cup, filling them about three-quarters full.

Bake the Breakfast Cups:

Return the muffin tin to the oven and bake for an additional 12-15 minutes, or until the eggs are set and cooked through.

Cool and Serve:

Allow the hash brown breakfast cups to cool in the muffin tin for a few minutes before removing them.

Serve warm, garnished with additional green onions or your favorite toppings if desired.

Enjoy your Hash Brown Breakfast Cups, a tasty and convenient way to start your day!
