Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 32 ounces Frozen hash browns
- 8 ounces Cream cheese
- 1 cup Sour cream
- 2 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
- 3 whole Jalapenos, diced
- 4 tablespoons Butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Breadcrumbs
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray or butter.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, melted butter, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Add the frozen hash browns, shredded cheddar cheese, and diced jalapenos to the bowl. Mix everything together until the hash browns are evenly coated with the cream cheese mixture.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out in an even layer.
In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan cheese. Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the top of the hash brown mixture.
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and crispy.
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired.
