I used frozen hash browns but if you wanted to do the work I’m sure 2 pounds of diced potatoes would work just as well. This Cracker Barrel’s Hash Brown Casserole is very simple to make and is delicious. We had left over’s so I froze some of it to take to work with me; it freezes just great. I love cheese, we don’t have a Cracker Barrel Restaurant here in the area so we don’t get to one very often. When I saw this recipe I had to give it a try. I served this with the Southern Fried Chicken recipe just previous to this post. It was a delicious combination.
Ingredients
2 lbs frozen hash browns
1/2 cup margarine or 1/2 cup butter, melted
1 (10 1/4 ounce) can cream of chicken soup
1 pint sour cream
1/2 cup onion, peeled and chopped
2 cups cheddar cheese, grated
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350°F and spray an 11 x 14 baking dish with cooking spray.
2. Mix the above ingredients together, separate the cheese so you have enough left to garnish the top. Place in prepared pan and bake for 45 minutes; remove from the oven and garnish the top with the remaining cheese. Then place back in the oven and bake until brown on top.
Enjoy!
I can’t wait to try this. I always order these when I go to Cracker Barrel. Thanks for the recipe.
Have tried this recipe from another site. It is good and the guys love it. I use the shredded frozen hash browns,
Can this be divided in two (or made for two) successfully?
It’s just the two of us, but it looks Yummy!
Thx!
I don’t see why not.
Thanks
The recipe that I have for this is without the sour cream and it’s very good. Can’t wait to try it with the sour cream. Sounds delish!!
I got this recipe from my husbands’s aunt over thirty years ago. It is handy for so many things. I like to take it in a throw away aluminum pan to friends’ homes when I have to take a dish. It is always finished off. This can also be made ahead to go in the oven for breakfast, like at Christmas. We open gifts and then the food is ready.

I have had this recipe for over 40 years. The only difference is to use cream of potato soup
My grandma has made it for years, and its a must-have at family gatherings. She also includes crumbled, cooked bacon in the casserole, and a crunchy cornflake topping (finely crushed cornflakes mixed with melted butter and added to the top for the last 15 minutes of baking time). Any way you make it, this casserole is a winner!
