You guys know I have an obsessed with quesadillas, enchiladas and tacos. So it was only a matter of time until I shared my most favorite breakfast taco recipe!

Think: crispy, crunchy tacos made in the oven and the tortillas are filled with cheesy meaty goodness with sausage, eggs and so much flavor.

These crispy baked breakfast tacos are a favorite. They’re so easy to make and the flavors are unbelievable. My husband loves these tacos too and that says a lot because he orders breakfast tacos anytime they’re on the menu. He is also just obsessed with anything egg, sausage and cheese.

These breakfast tacos get golden, crispy and this recipe is great for kids too or a larger crowd. It is simple enough for a quick weeknight dinner idea or even a brunch recipe too. You can serve these with your favorite dips or taco toppings like guacamole, salsa or sour cream.

What ingredients are in these Baked Breakfast Tacos:

• Ground sausage – if you don’t love sausage, use bacon or a vegan meat alternative 
• Sweet onion – love cooking this with the sausage for flavor 
• Eggs – I love adding these in for more protein and a classic breakfast taco of course has eggs
• Yogurt – greek or any yogurt works – even cottage cheese you can do
• Shredded cheese – cheddar or a Mexican blend works!
• Flour or corn tortilla of choice –  I used these at room temp or warmed

How to make Baked Breakfast Tacos:

1. Warm oil in large skillet over medium heat then add onion and cook until browned
2. Add in the ground sausage and be sure to crumble it as it cooks and cook until ready, for 5-7 minutes (strain any excess fat) and remove from heat
3. Next whisk together the eggs and yogurt and any spices until combined
4. Cook on skillet to your liking (I usually soft scramble) then remove from heat and set aside 
5. Preheat oven to 425 degree F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper
6. Lay out tortillas across a greased baking sheet
7. Spread some cheese across half then add some sausage and eggs followed by cheese
8. Fold over to seal and repeat with remaining tortillas (you may have leftover ingredients depending on the size of tortillas)
9. Drizzle a little oil across the top or cooking spray then cook in oven until crispy, about 10-12 minutes (add another baking sheet on top if you want to press down the tortillas easily!)
10. Serve while warm with desired toppings like guacamole, salsa and sour cream

FAQs and tips on making crispy baked tacos:

• What kind of toppings do you serve? Chunky guacamole, salsa, sour cream, really anything you want! Even a quest of sorts would be delicious.
• Do these tacos taste good leftover? These are best enjoyed fresh from the oven but you can totally reheat the leftovers on stovetop or back in oven. Microwave would make them soggy. But for optimal taste and texture, serve fresh from oven.
• Can I prep these tacos ahead of time? You can make the meat ahead of time but assemble the tacos and cook right before eating.
• What kind of meat works best for this recipe? Any ground meat works! So turkey, chicken or beef can all be used.
• Can I serve this to my kids? Is it spicy? It is more on the mild side and my kids love this. If you do want spice, add some diced jalapeños to the meat when you cook it or hot sauce to the tacos!
