Are you looking for a unique, special occasion breakfast? Then you’ve come to the right place!

Let me introduce you to these breakfast croquettes.

About The Recipe

Even if you’re not familiar with the term croquette, you’re probably familiar with the food.

Think breaded-and-fried favorites like Scotch eggs, mozzarella sticks, and crab cakes.

Now take that concept, and give it a breakfast spin. In this recipe, all the traditional breakfast components are there:

Potatoes

Sausage

Cheese

Eggs

Peppers and onions

But instead of each of these food items appearing individually on your breakfast plate, they’re deliciously combined, formed into a patty, breaded, and fried.

Here’s the deal: This is a special occasion breakfast.

You can save the cereal, toast, and scrambled eggs for your weekday breakfast.

If you’re entertaining guests or celebrating a special occasion or holiday, give this recipe a try.

But even though they’re special occasion, they’re still budget-friendly and quite easy to make.

The only challenging part is deep frying. And that’s quite easy, as long as you follow these tips:

Use a large, heavy-bottom pot with about 2 inches of oil: The oil level should be far from the top of the pot.

Make sure the oil is hot enough: When I deep fry, I don’t usually measure the temperature of the oil. Instead, I dip the edge of the food into the hot oil. If it sizzles, then the oil is probably hot enough. But if you want to be precise, heat the oil to 350F.

The Sauce

Every fried food, in my opinion, is better with a dipping sauce.

French fries and ketchup

Jalapeño poppers and sweet chili sauce

Mozzarella sticks and marinara sauce

… Breakfast croquettes and this spicy-tangy-sweet dipping sauce.

The sauce is a simple mix of Dorothy Lynch Dressing & Condiment, mayonnaise, and habanero hot sauce. If you don’t like spice, you can skip the hot sauce.
