Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Frozen shredded hash browns
- 4 tablespoons Butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 6 Eggs
- 120 milliliters Heavy cream
- 200 grams Fresh spinach, chopped
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 200 grams Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 50 grams Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 small Onion, finely chopped
- 0.25 teaspoon Nutmeg (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Grease a 9-inch pie dish or oven-safe tart pan.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded hash browns, melted butter, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to evenly coat the hash browns.
Press the hash brown mixture evenly into the prepared pie dish, ensuring the bottom and sides are well-covered to form a crust.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, or until the edges are slightly golden. Remove and set aside to cool slightly.
While the crust is baking, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until softened, about 3–4 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds, then stir in the chopped spinach. Cook until wilted, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, nutmeg (if using), and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Stir in the sautéed spinach mixture, shredded mozzarella, and half of the Parmesan cheese.
Pour the egg and spinach filling over the pre-baked hash brown crust, spreading it evenly.
Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan cheese over the top of the pie.
Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the pie cool for 5–10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your Cheesy Hash Spinach Pie!
