Description

A creamy, cheesy, and comforting hash brown casserole just like the one from Cracker Barrel — perfect for breakfast or as a side dish for any meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (30 oz) bag frozen shredded hash browns, thawed
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 (10.5 oz) can cream of chicken soup
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • Cooking spray for greasing

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine melted butter, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, chopped onion, shredded cheddar cheese, salt, and pepper.
  3. Stir in thawed hash browns until well coated.
  4. Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
  5. Bake uncovered for 45–50 minutes, or until the top is golden and the casserole is bubbly.
  6. Let it rest for 5–10 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • You can substitute cream of mushroom soup for a vegetarian version.
  • Add crushed cornflakes or Ritz crackers on top with a bit of melted butter for a crispy topping.
  • Great for make-ahead: prepare the night before and bake in the morning.
