Recipe Introduction
My husband absolutely LOVES the Hashbrown Casserole from Cracker Barrel. I made this recipe up and he thinks it is actually better than the one served there. It can be made in the Crockpot or the oven. I usually make it in the crockpot so we can enjoy it even in the HOT summertime.
List of Ingredients
- 6 cups hashbrowns
- Dried onion
- 1 can cream of mushroom soup
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1/4 tsp thyme
- Black Pepper to taste
- Garlic to taste (about 1-2 cloves)
- Cheese****
Instructions
- Spray crockpot with cooking spray. Place hashbrowns in first. Add everything else to crockpot. Stir. Cook for 1 hour on high and turn down to low. Cook for 4 hours on high or 8 hours on low.
- To cook in the oven: Mix all ingredients together. Pour into greased, large baking dish. Cook in preheated 375 to 400 degree oven for 1 hour. Top with extra cheese, if desired.
- This recipe actually does turn out better in the crockpot because there is no loss of moisture like there is with oven cooking.
Final Comments
I use a variety of cheeses in quite a large amount. Probably a total of 1 to 1-1/2 lbs. of shredded cheese. I use mild and sharp cheddar, mozzerella, and the other shredded mixtures. The more cheese, the better. Experiment until you find a combination you like.
