Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Cheesy Hash Brown Casserole.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 425°F (220°C) and give a light greasing to a 9x13-inch baking dish to ensure nothing sticks.
Step 2
Next, take your frozen hash browns and spread them evenly across the bottom of the prepared dish, setting them aside for now.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine shredded Cheddar cheese, creamy sour cream, and a can of condensed cream of mushroom soup.
Step 4
Stir these ingredients together until they’re well blended and set this delicious mixture aside.
Step 5
Now, grab a large skillet and melt half a cup of butter over medium heat.
Step 6
Toss in the chopped onion and sauté it for about five minutes, or until it becomes soft and fragrant.
Step 7
Once the onion is ready, mix it into the cheese mixture until everything is fully combined.
Step 8
Pour this cheesy goodness over the hash browns in your baking dish, spreading it out evenly to cover every inch.
Step 9
For a delightful crunch, sprinkle crushed cornflakes generously over the top of the cheese layer.
Step 10
Melt the remaining half cup of butter in the skillet and drizzle it over the cornflakes to add an extra layer of flavor and texture.
Step 11
Now it’s time to bake your creation! Place the dish in the preheated oven and let it bake for about an hour, or until the casserole is bubbling and the top is beautifully golden brown.
Step 12
The aroma wafting through your kitchen will be irresistible, and soon you’ll have a comforting dish that’s perfect for any gathering or cozy night in.
Step 13
Enjoy every cheesy, crunchy bite!.
