These cheesy hash browns are so easy and so delicious. Frozen hash browns are mixed with sour cream, mayo, cream of chicken soup, and cheddar cheese, topped with more cheddar, and baked to a creamy, cheesy, crunchy perfection.
Prep. Preheat the oven to 350°F and grease a 9X13-inch baking pan.
Put it all together. In a large mixing bowl, combine the hash browns, onion, cream of chicken, butter, sour cream, mayo, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and 2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese. Mix until the hash browns are thoroughly coated, and everything looks homogenous.
Assemble. Spread the hash brown mixture into the baking pan and sprinkle with the remaining cheese.
Bake. Bake uncovered for 60 to 70 minutes or until hot and bubbly, and the cheese is a nice golden brown. Let cool for 10 minutes before serving.
Notes
Break apart any frozen hash brown clumps with your fingers before combining them with the other ingredients.
Give it time to set and allow the casserole to rest for 10 minutes after baking.
Change it up and mix in your choice of cooked sausage, bacon, or ham before baking.
For storage, put leftovers in an airtight container and keep them in the fridge for 3 to 4 days, or freeze them for 3 months. Thaw before reheating.
