Quick & Easy One Pan Breakfast
I am always a big fan of easy breakfast recipes. I love making a big breakfast for my family and starting our day together around the table, but I absolutely hate the prep and cooking that typically goes into making a big breakfast. It seems like I always get stuck standing over the stove or a griddle.
Not with this one. This recipe is almost too good to be true. It’s so simple to prepare in 5 minutes, and then I just pop it in the oven for 35-40 minutes and let it do it’s thing! And with just one pan needed, cleaning up is totally hassle free, and there’s no grease all over my kitchen!

How to Make Sheet Pan Breakfast
Preparing this hearty meal takes just 5 minutes. Then pop it in the oven for about 35-40 minutes and you’ve got an easy breakfast to feed the whole family.
Wash and cut potatoes. Coat them with olive oil and mix with seasonings.
Pro-Tip: Cut the potatoes in half if they are small, in quarters if they are large! Be sure they are small enough that they will cook through and get soft. Be sure to spread them into one layer, not overlapping when you cook them!
Spread potatoes on the pan and bake on 425 degrees for 20 minutes.
Add bacon strips to the pan and bake for 10 minutes.
Flip bacon and move potatoes to crack eggs on the pan. Bake for another 6-8 minutes.
Pro-Tip: Before adding the eggs to your pan, you want to arrange the potatoes in a way that creates four little wells for the egg to be cracked into. As shown in the pictures. Depending on the size of pan you are using, you may be able to fit more than 4 eggs.
Sprinkle with seasonings & parsley. Serve!
Variations / Options / Add-ins
- Potatoes: You can use any type of potatoes for this recipe. I have used red potatoes, Yukon gold, and even Russet potatoes. All turned out great!
- Seasoning: You can play around and switch up the seasonings in this dish to your liking. Especially when it comes to the potatoes. One of my go-to seasonings for breakfast is Trader Joe’s Everyday Seasoning. It has sea salt, mustard seeds, black peppercorns, coriander, onion, garlic, paprika, and chili. It’s so delicious!
How to Store Leftovers?
It is best to eat this meal fresh. However, if you do have leftovers they can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. This meal will not freeze well.
How to Serve?
The beauty of our sheet pan breakfast is that it’s a complete meal in one pan! However, if you’re looking to add a little sweetness to this breakfast spread, we’ve got you covered.
Try making these Pancake Muffins or our Air Fryer French Toast Sticks. Both would be a great addition. If you need a drink to pair with breakfast, try my Homemade Pumpkin Spiced Latte recipe! Any of these could be easily made while the sheet pan breakfast is cooking in the oven.

Sheet Pan Breakfast
Ingredients
- 2 pounds baby potatoes
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp cracked black pepper plus additional for serving
- ½ tsp salt
- 8 slices bacon
- 4 large eggs
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425F. Line a rimmed 18×13 half sheet pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Wash and cut the baby potatoes in half (quarters if the potatoes are large). Place the halved potatoes in a large mixing bowl with the olive oil, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, black pepper and salt. Toss to coat.
- Spread the potatoes out in a single layer on the prepared sheet pan. Bake for 20 minutes.
- Carefully remove the sheet pan from the oven and move the potatoes to one side of the pan. Add the strips of bacon and bake an additional 10 minutes.
- Remove the pan from the oven once more. Use tongs to flip the bacon and arrange the potatoes so that there are four wells for the eggs. Carefully crack the eggs into the wells and return the pan to the oven for an additional 6-8 minutes, until the eggs are cooked to your liking.
- Sprinkle with additional cracked black pepper and chopped fresh parsley before serving.
Jenn’s Notes
- Cut the potatoes in half if they are small, in quarters if they are large! Be sure they are small enough that they will cook through and get soft. Be sure to spread them into one layer, not overlapping when you cook them!
- It’s important that the potatoes have enough space for them to be spread out in a single layer in order for them to cook properly. If you don’t have a large enough sheet pan, divide the recipe between 2 smaller pans.
- Before adding the eggs to your pan, you want to arrange the potatoes in a way that creates four little wells for the egg to be cracked into. As shown in the pictures. Depending on the size of pan you are using, you may be able to fit more than 4 eggs.
My kids get excited about it. thanks for sharing it, Jenn!
