Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 20 oz Frozen shredded hash browns
- 4 tbsp Unsalted butter
- 6 Eggs
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 cup Cooked bacon or ham, diced
- 1 cup Spinach, chopped
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9-inch pie dish or quiche pan with a small amount of butter.
In a medium saucepan, melt 4 tablespoons of butter over low heat. In a large bowl, combine the melted butter with the frozen shredded hash browns, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and pepper. Mix well to coat.
Press the hash brown mixture firmly into the greased dish, spreading evenly across the bottom and up the sides to form the crust. Make sure there are no gaps.
Bake the hash brown crust in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes or until it starts to crisp and lightly brown. Remove from the oven and set aside.
In another large bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt, garlic powder, and additional pepper until fully combined.
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, cooked bacon or ham, and chopped spinach to the egg mixture. Mix until evenly distributed.
Pour the egg filling into the baked hash brown crust, spreading it out evenly.
Return the dish to the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the center of the quiche is set and no longer jiggles when shaken.
Remove the quiche from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your delicious hash brown quiche!
