Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Generously spray a standard size muffin tin pan with baking spray, set aside. This will help the hash browns not stick to the pan 

In a large mixing bowl, combine the hash browns, 1/2 cup cheese, salt, pepper, and paprika. Press the mixture into the bottom, creating a nest.

Place in oven and bake for 20 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees.

In a medium mixing bowl whisk together the remaining 1/2 cup of cheese, eggs, milk, and bacon. Pour into the baked hash browns, then return to the oven to bake for 12-15 minutes or until fully set.

Remove from the oven and allow to cool in the tins for 5 minutes before removing.

Garnish with a pinch of salt and pepper, and freshly chopped parsley. Serve immediately. Enjoy!!
