12 eggs: Eggs are the star ingredient that binds everything together and creates a fluffy texture.
½ cup milk: Adding milk makes the eggs light and fluffy. For a richer flavor, use cream instead.
1 cup shredded cheese (such as Monterey Jack): A gooey cheese blend on top melts perfectly, adding delicious creaminess.
10 tortillas (burrito sized): Choose flour or corn tortillas depending on your preference—they’ll hold all that delicious filling nicely.

How to Make Sheet Pan Breakfast Burritos With Potatoes

Preheat your oven: Set your oven to 400°F to get it nice and hot while you prepare the ingredients.

Prepare the vegetables: Peel the potatoes, then dice the bell peppers, onions, and potatoes into uniform pieces, ensuring they cook evenly. Spread everything out on a large baking sheet.

Season and oil the veggies: Generously sprinkle the diced vegetables with 1 tsp. of paprika, 1 tsp. of salt, and 1 tsp. of pepper. Drizzle with 1 tbsp. of oil, tossing the veggies so they’re coated well. Place the baking sheet into your preheated oven for about 15 minutes until they begin to soften.

Flip the mixture and add sausage: After 15 minutes, take the sheet pan out and give the veggie mixture a good flip with a spatula. Slice the frozen sausage into bite-sized pieces and scatter it over the veggies. Return it to the oven to bake for another 15 minutes until the sausage is heated through.

Whisk the eggs: While the sausage and veggies finish baking, crack 12 eggs into a large mixing bowl. Add ½ cup of milk and whisk vigorously until you achieve a pale yellow color, which will create beautiful, fluffy eggs.

Combine and bake: Once your veggies and sausage are done, carefully sprinkle the shredded cheese over the top. Then, pour the egg mixture evenly across the baking sheet. Pop it back in the oven for a final 15 minutes or until the eggs are set and the edges are just starting to turn golden.

Slice and assemble burritos: Once everything is cooked, take the pan out and allow it to cool slightly. Slice the mixture into 10 equal pieces. Grab your tortillas and place one portion of the filling in the center of each tortilla. Fold the sides in and roll it up tightly into a burrito. Tightly wrap each burrito in foil to keep them warm and intact.

Storing & Reheating

These delicious burritos can be stored at room temperature for up to two hours. For longer storage, place them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. If you want to freeze them, wrap each burrito tightly in foil and place them into a freezer-safe bag. They’ll keep well for up to 3 months. When you’re ready to enjoy them, simply reheat in the oven at 350°F for about 15-20 minutes or microwave them for 1-2 minutes until they’re heated through. Keep in mind that freezing can alter the texture slightly, but a quick warm-up in the oven can help bring back that fresh-out-of-the-oven feel.

Chef’s Helpful Tips

Avoid overcooking your veggies; they should be tender yet firm to hold their shape once filled.
Use room temperature eggs—this helps achieve fluffier results compared to cold eggs directly from the fridge.
If you’re making these ahead of time, leave out the cheese until just before baking for a fresher texture.
Test your burrito’s doneness—gently press down when reheating; well-prepared burritos should feel warm but not soggy.

Feel free to get creative with extras like fresh herbs, hot sauce, or your favorite toppings. Experimenting with the recipe can lead to discovering your ideal flavor combination.
