Cracker Barrel Hashbrown Casserole
This is the closest copycat version of Cracker Barrel's famous hashbrown casserole. The creamy cheesiness and crispy edges make this hashbrown casserole a hit for breakfast, lunch, or dinner!
Ingredients
- 16oz shredded potatoes (now, you can use frozen hashbrowns for the easy version or shred your own Idaho potatoes for a more authentic taste- I used frozen and it still tasted FABULOUS just know that the potatoes may be a bit soggy)
- 1 can Cream of Chicken Soup
- 8oz Cream Cheese
- 1/2 Cup Sour Cream
- 1/2 Cup Sharp Cheddar (now, to get a better flavor buy the bar cheese and shred it yourself or you can go the easy route and use pre-shredded- just know that the pre-shredded isn’t as flavorful)
- 1/2 Cup Colby Jack Cheese
- 1 small onion diced
- Salt
- Pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Make sure your hashbrowns are dried well with a paper towel.
- Blend the cream cheese, sour cream, and cream of chicken soup.
- Mix cream mixture together with onions, potatoes, and cheese.
- Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes (stirring half way through).
- Stir casserole once more, sprinkle with shredded cheese and up the oven temp to low broil for about 10 minutes or until the casserole is golden brown.
Notes
If your family loves cheese like mine does, feel free to add more cheese!

I like to use Colby Jack cheese...but it's really personal preference as to what type of cheese you like...many people use Cheddar Jack, Cheddar, Colby, etc.
