Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 32 oz Frozen shredded hash browns
- 4 tbsp Salted butter
- 1 cup Yellow onion, finely chopped
- 10.5 oz Cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup Sour cream
- 2 cups Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 cup Optional: Cornflake crumbs or crushed crackers for topping
- 2 tbsp Optional: Melted butter for topping
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with non-stick spray or butter.
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well until smooth.
Add the sautéed onion and the frozen shredded hash browns (no need to thaw) to the bowl. Stir until the hash browns are evenly coated with the mixture.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
For an optional topping, combine cornflake crumbs (or crushed crackers) with melted butter. Sprinkle the mixture over the casserole.
Bake uncovered in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbling around the edges and the top is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your cheesy, creamy, homemade hash brown casserole!
