Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 32 oz Frozen hash brown potatoes
- 2 cups Sour cream
- 1 can Cream of chicken soup
- 2 cups Shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup Butter
- 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Ground black pepper
- 2 cups Cornflakes, crushed
- 0.25 cup Butter (melted, for topping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Thaw the frozen hash brown potatoes if they are not already thawed.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sour cream, cream of chicken soup, shredded cheddar cheese, 1/2 cup of butter (melted), chopped onion, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a creamy base.
Add the thawed hash brown potatoes to the mixture and fold them in gently until evenly coated.
Spread the potato mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish, smoothing out the top with a spatula.
In a small bowl, mix the crushed cornflakes with 1/4 cup of melted butter until the cornflakes are coated.
Sprinkle the buttered cornflake mixture evenly over the top of the potatoes to create a crispy topping.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the topping is golden and the potatoes are bubbly around the edges.
Remove from the oven and let the dish rest for 10 minutes before serving.
Serve warm as a comforting side dish alongside your favorite main courses.
