Perfectly slow-cooked to golden perfection, this recipe combines frozen hash browns with gooey cheddar cheese, tangy sour cream, and a touch of velvety cream of chicken soup, all enhanced by a fusion of garlic and onion powder. The patties are wonderfully easy to prepare, shaped by hand and layered in your trusty crock pot for hands-off cooking. With only 15 minutes of prep and a 4-hour cook time, it's a set-it-and-forget-it recipe ideal for busy weeknights or leisurely weekend brunches. Whether served as a hearty breakfast with eggs and bacon or paired with your favorite dipping sauce as a crowd-pleasing side dish, these cheesy hash brown patties are comfort food at its finest.
Spray the inside of your crock pot with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the frozen hash browns, shredded cheddar cheese, sour cream, cream of chicken soup, melted butter, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix everything together until evenly combined.
Using your hands or a burger press, form the mixture into evenly sized patties. They should be about 1/2 inch thick for even cooking.
Layer the hash brown patties in the crock pot. If needed, you can slightly overlap them, but try to keep the layers as even as possible to ensure even cooking.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and set it to LOW heat. Cook for 4 hours, or until the patties are cooked through and golden on the edges.
Once done, use a spatula to carefully remove the patties from the crock pot. They will be tender, so handle them gently.
Serve the patties warm as a side dish or enjoy them with your favorite dipping sauces. They also pair well with eggs and bacon for breakfast!
