This dish doesn’t require much work beyond mixing everything in one large bowl, and it can be easily adapted to serve as a breakfast or dinner option. This will also help the potatoes maintain their shape and texture inside of the casserole, preventing them from becoming overcooked or mushy. I suggest letting them thaw slightly and squeezing out a bit of the excess liquid with your hands or a cheesecloth so that you achieve the maximum crispy texture of potato on the top of the casserole. The grated onion also lends lots of umami and flavor to each bite.įrozen preshredded hash browns take out all of the hardest work from this recipe. I spruce up mine by adding a little black pepper and garlic powder, and I stay light on the use of salt because, truthfully, you don’t need much when you factor in the saltiness of the cheese. One thing I saw missing from many of the many copycat recipes out there was adequate seasoning. Reserving some of the cheese to sprinkle on top before baking ensures a very social media–worthy cheese pull. Sour cream and cheddar cheese also help create the creamy consistency and touch of tangy flavor this rich dish really needs to shine.

But the Cracker Barrel combined just a handful of textural components for a dish that was crunchy on top, firm enough to hold the ingredients together, and creamy from the cheese and sauce they’d put inside.

When I hear the word casserole, I think of a thick, layered baked concoction that has some sort of starchy base (usually a noodle of some kind), vegetables, meat, and some sort of sauce and cheese situation-basically, all of the components of a full meal baked into one casserole dish and served as is, as a stand-alone dinner. Instead of getting my usual standard breakfast plate with a side of grits, I opted to try their casserole after seeing some on a friend’s plate. Remove from the pan and repeat with the remaining half of the oil and hash browns. I was first introduced to it on a Sunday morning a few years ago, at Cracker Barrel, a restaurant which arguably has some of the best hash brown casserole in the country. Carefully flip and cook for another 5-7 minutes or until both sides are golden brown and crispy. Cheesy, crispy, and filling, hash brown casserole is a classic breakfast dish (or potluck side) that only takes a few minutes and a few ingredients to throw together.
