| 6 | Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the hash brown potatoes, and then crumble the cooked bacon on top. |
| 7 | In a mixing bowl, beat together the eggs, baking powder, milk, and chopped green onions until well combined. |
| 8 | Pour the egg mixture evenly over the cheese and bacon in the baking dishes. |
| 9 | Place the baking dishes in the preheated oven and bake, uncovered, for approximately 20-25 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the top is golden brown. |
| 10 | Once done, remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your flavorful Ranch Style Brunch Eggs! |
