Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 32 oz Frozen shredded hash browns
- 1 cup Sour cream
- 1 can (10.5 oz) Cream of chicken soup
- 2 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 stick (melted, 8 tbsp) Butter
- 1 cup (finely diced) Yellow onion
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Ground black pepper
- 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
- 2 cups Crushed cornflakes
- 0.25 cup (melted, 4 tbsp) Butter (for topping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish with nonstick spray or butter.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sour cream, cream of chicken soup, shredded cheddar cheese, melted butter (1 stick), diced onion, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix until well blended.
Add the frozen shredded hash browns to the mixture and stir until the hash browns are evenly coated with the creamy mixture.
Spread the hash brown mixture evenly into the prepared casserole dish, smoothing the top with a spatula.
In a small bowl, mix the crushed cornflakes with 1/4 cup of melted butter until the cornflakes are evenly coated.
Sprinkle the buttered cornflake mixture evenly over the top of the casserole to create a crunchy topping.
Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the casserole is bubbling around the edges.
Allow the casserole to cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
