Tater Tots Recipe

Brunch

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. 2

   Melt 2 tablespoons of butter and brush the melted butter over the baking sheet. Spread the frozen tater tots in a single layer on the sheet.

3. 3

   Bake the tots for 18-22 minutes, turning once halfway, until golden and crisp.

4. 4

   While the tots bake, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crisp. Transfer to paper towels to drain, then crumble.

5. 5

   In a bowl, whisk together the 6 eggs, 1/2 cup milk, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Stir in 1 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese.

6. 6

   Carefully remove the sheet with the partially baked tots. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the tots and sprinkle the remaining 1 cup cheddar cheese over the top.

7. 7

   Return to the oven and bake at 375°F (190°C) for 10-12 minutes, or until the eggs are just set and the cheese is melted.

8. 8

   Remove from oven, sprinkle the crumbled bacon and sliced green onions over the top. If desired, bake 2-3 minutes more to warm the toppings.

9. 9

   Let stand for 5 minutes, then slice into portions and serve.
