How To Make Hash Brown Casserole with Corn Flakes

1. Prepare: Preheat the oven to 350°F (180ºC). Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish and set it aside.

2. Mix ingredients: In a large bowl, stir together hash browns, cheddar cheese, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, onion powder, salt, pepper, and ½ cup of butter. Make sure to stir well until everything combines, then pour the potato mixture into the prepared baking dish.

3. Make the topping: In a small bowl, lightly crush the corn flakes. Add the remaining ¼ cup of butter and stir until the crushed corn flakes are coated in the melted butter. Sprinkle the mixture evenly over the top of the hash brown casserole mixture.

4. Bake and serve: Cover the casserole dish and bake it for 45 minutes. Uncover and bake an additional 5-10 minutes until corn flakes are golden brown. Serve the hashbrown casserole with corn flakes warm, and enjoy!

Tips To Make The Best Recipe

• Use fresh shredded potatoes instead of frozen hash browns.
• Use cream of mushroom soup or cream of celery soup instead of chicken soup to make this dish vegetarian-friendly.
• Use Ritz crackers instead of crushed cornflakes, or add them to the cornflake topping for more of a crunch.
• Mix all of the ingredients in the baking dish to make this easy hash brown casserole even quicker to prepare.

How To Store Cheesy Hashbrown Casserole with Corn Flakes

In the fridge: To store any leftover casserole, put a lid on the baking dish or transfer it into an airtight container. Store it in the fridge for 3-5 days.

In the freezer: Transfer the leftovers to a freezer-safe airtight container or freezer-safe bag and freeze for up to 3 months.

Reheating: The quickest way to reheat the leftovers is by microwaving them in 30-second increments until warmed thoroughly. You can also bake them at 350°F for about 10 minutes. Thaw the frozen casserole in the fridge overnight or add more reheating time.
