A simple, satisfying sheet pan breakfast featuring crispy potatoes, tender eggs, and sweet bell peppers, perfect for busy mornings or brunch.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 medium Yukon Gold or russet potatoes, diced into ½-inch cubes
  • 6 large eggs, room temperature
  • 2 medium bell peppers (red and yellow), diced
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and freshly cracked black pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
  • ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and allow it to reach temperature for at least 15 minutes.
  2. Wash and dice the potatoes into ½-inch cubes. Dice the bell peppers into similar sizes.
  3. In a large bowl, toss the potatoes and peppers with olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  4. Spread the potatoes and peppers in a single layer on a lined sheet pan, avoiding overcrowding.
  5. Roast for 20 minutes, flipping the potatoes and peppers with tongs after 10 minutes for even browning.
  6. Remove the pan and create 6 small wells in the potato and pepper mixture. Crack one egg into each well, being careful not to break the yolks.
  7. Return the pan to the oven and bake for another 8–10 minutes until egg whites are set but yolks are still slightly runny. Add more time if firmer yolks are desired.
  8. Remove from oven, sprinkle with fresh parsley and extra black pepper if desired. Let rest for 2 minutes before serving.

Notes

Use Yukon Gold potatoes for creamier texture or russets for crispier edges. Do not overcrowd the pan to avoid soggy potatoes. Crack eggs in last to prevent rubbery whites. Parchment paper helps prevent sticking and eases cleanup. Leftovers reheat best in the oven to maintain crispiness.
