Ingredients

4 cups frozen hash browns, thawed
¼ teaspoon sea salt
½ teaspoon black pepper, divided
¾ cup ham, diced
2 green onions, ends removed and sliced thinly

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, add 4 cups hash browns, 1 cup cheese, 1 tablespoon butter, 1 egg, 1/4 teaspoon sea salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper and stir to combine well.
Transfer hash browns and cheese mixture to the baking sheet. Spread out to form a large oval about ¼-½ inch thick and form a wall with the edges.
Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes or until crust is nice and golden brown.
While the crust is baking, in a bowl add the whisked eggs, diced ham, ½ cup of the shredded cheese and pepper. Give it a quick stir and then carefully pour onto the pre-baked crust.
Place pizza back in the oven for 10 minutes or until eggs are set. Once time is up, top with the remaining cheese and bake for an additional 2-3 minutes.
Remove from oven and top with green onion slices and cracked black pepper. Let set for 2-3 minutes before slicing into triangles or squares.
