I’d love to learn more about you too, so be sure to say “hi” in the comments below or you can send me an email.

And, if you missed our party on Thursday, make sure you take some time to check out all of our Easter tables [HERE].

The Best No-Fail Cheesy Hash Brown Casserole

This tried and true recipe is another favorite that I’ve made for years. It’s from one of those old hometown church cookbooks, so you know it’s good!

You’ll often see this side dish on our table during the holidays, especially at Easter time. And if pairs perfectly with one of my other Easter faves, old-fashioned ham balls.

Ingredients For Cheesy Hash Brown Casserole

  • 1 bag of frozen shredded hash browns, thawed (30 ozs.)
  • 1/2 cup of unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 container of sour cream (16 ozs.)
  • 2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 can cream of mushroom soup
  • 2 tablespoons of minced, dried onion
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 1/2 tablespoon of black pepper
  • 2 cups of corn flakes, crushed

How To Make The Best No-Fail Cheesy Hash Brown Casserole

First, grease a 9 x 13 baking dish and preheat your oven to 350℉. Then, in a large mixing bowl, dump in half of the thawed hash browns and set the bowl aside.

In a separate bowl mix the cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, onion, salt, pepper, melted butter, and cheese.

Pour half of the soup mixture over the potatoes. Then add the rest of the hash browns and the remaining soup mixture. Stir well until everything is combined.

To finish the cheesy hash browns, top them with crushed corn flakes. I like to pour my cereal into a plastic bag and use a rolling pin to crush it. The bottom of your measuring cup will work as a good crushing tool as well.

Bake the casserole for 60 minutes or until it’s bubbly and golden brown. Then dig in and enjoy!

The casserole is delicious as leftovers too! Just reheat a serving in the microwave until it’s warmed through. Leftovers will keep in the fridge and are best when eaten within 3-5 days.
