Ingredients
Scale
- 6 large eggs
- 1/2 cup cooked ground breakfast sausage (pork or turkey)
- 1/4 cup heavy cream or whole milk
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup diced bell peppers
- 2 tablespoons diced green onions
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
- Start by selecting a cake pan or a silicone baking dish that fits comfortably inside your air fryer basket. Lightly coat the inside of the dish with non-stick cooking spray. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until the mixture is light and bubbly. Stir in the cooked sausage, diced bell peppers, and half of the shredded cheese. Pour the egg mixture into the prepared baking dish.
- Place the baking dish into the air fryer basket. Set your air fryer to 330°F (165°C). Slide the basket in and cook for 15 to 18 minutes. At the 15-minute mark, check the center of the casserole. It should be mostly set with a slight jiggle. Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese over the top and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until the cheese is melted and the eggs are fully set. The top should be a beautiful golden brown.
- Carefully remove the baking dish from the air fryer using oven mitts or tongs. Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes; this allows the eggs to firm up and makes slicing much easier. Top with fresh green onions or a dollop of sour cream if desired. Cut the casserole into four equal wedges and serve warm.
