Ingredients

• 500 grams frozen shredded hashbrowns
• 200 grams cheddar cheese
• 4 tablespoons butter
• 120 milliliters heavy cream
• 120 milliliters sour cream
• 1 medium onion
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 50 grams breadcrumbs
• 1 tablespoon olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with a small amount of butter or olive oil.

Step 2

Thaw the frozen shredded hashbrowns and gently pat them dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.

Step 3

Grate the cheddar cheese and set aside. Dice the onion into small pieces.

Step 4

In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for 3-5 minutes until translucent.

Step 5

In a large mixing bowl, combine the hashbrowns, sautéed onions, heavy cream, sour cream, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly to evenly coat the potatoes.

Step 6

Fold in half of the grated cheddar cheese into the hashbrown mixture.

Step 7

Transfer the hashbrown mixture into the greased baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Sprinkle the remaining grated cheese on top.

Step 8

In a small bowl, mix the breadcrumbs with olive oil until evenly coated. Sprinkle this mixture over the cheese layer in the baking dish.

Step 9

Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the cheese is bubbling.

Step 10

Let the cheesy hashbrowns cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
