Cracker Barrel's Hashbrowns Casserole - Copycat

Wonderful recipe. It's not quite Cracker Barrell, but it's just as good. I mixed everything, including the potatoes, in a bowl and poured it into the pan the second time I made it. I found the texture and combining of ingredients better this way. Thanks for the recipe!

It doesn't have a lot of flavor, even after I added garlic powder, salt and cayanne pepper. I even cut down on the sour cream as some posters suggested, but it tastes overwhealmingly of sour cream. I think if there were more onions and less sour cream, or maybe no sour cream?

Fabulous!! I don't know what the Cracker Barrel is but we served this at our church dinner tonight and the pastor's wife got all excited and said;"this tastes like the hashbrown casserole at the Cracker Barrel." Of course everyone wanted seconds and we had to turn them down so I will definitely multiply this great recipe and serve it again and again!!

This is a delicious casserole dish! I made this for my husband who isn't typically crazy about potatoes and he ate 3 huge helpings! I cooked this at a bit of a higher temp and baked it long enough that it started getting crispy on top. I added some minced onion along with the diced onion. I don't think I added a full pint of sour cream...maybe 3/4 and I didn't realize until this morning that I forgot to put in any butter at all! To be honest, I don't think it needs it, I think it would have been greasy with all the cheese. I served this with grilled T-Bones and corn on the cob and the whole family ate more than one helping. Thanks for posting this, it is a definite keeper for us!

This is by far the best hashbrown dish I have ever tasted! Every time I make this, people ask for the recipe! I also think that it is very close to the Cracker Barrel recipe. I used low 98% fat free soup and low fat sour cream and I don't think it took anything away from the taste other than the calories. Not bad for someone dieting. It makes you feel like you are indulging without!!

Very good recipe. Followed the recipe exactly except for adding the melted butter. Next time I would recommend cooking the onions a little before adding them to the casserole as they were still a bit crunchy even after baking. Thanks for another keeper!!!

Made this for Christmas brunch. I omitted the onions and used onion powder instead....it turned out great. I just can't believe how quickly it was gone...I was hoping for leftovers!

I halved the sour cream and left out the butter completely. It didn't have much flavor to it, but it was still good. I will make it again maybe with more onion added.

My husband loved it, but I used cream of celery soup.

This is an awsome dish! My changes were using cream of celery, no butter, I used French's onion rings that are dry and come in a can. You don't have to fry them and it gives a good crunchy oniony flavor, this is the only way I eat onions. I also do the topping two ways, one way is the french fried onion rings crumbled and using the potatoe chips that are super crunchy and crumble them. Thumbs for this cassarole!

OMG!!! This is so close to the Cracker Barrel recipe and was so easy to make! I cut the recipe in half since I have a family of 4. I did not add the margerine because of previous reviews and because I am on the Weight Watchers program. I used fat free sour cream and 98% fat free soup. I cooked at 375 for 30 minutes the swiched it to broil for the last 10 minutes so the top would brown. The possibilities for this recipe is endless.....you could add pre cooked meats,add a variety of different cheeses, and even add peppers for a spicy taste. My whole family loved it and I will try to come up with a crockpot version for those days I have to work and don't want to cook. Thanks for posting this!

This makes a nice change from the usual scalloped potatoes we always have, I omitted the butter, because I felt there would be enough fat already & I sprinkled the top with sweet paprika & chopped green onions. Will have this again.

Sooooooo good!! I made a few changes though, taking the advice of several other reviewers...I decreased the sour cream to 1 cup instead of 2 and I put just 2 tbsp of melted margarine instead of 1/2 cup. I also thawed the hash browns first. This turned out just wonderful and I will definately be making it again with the changes I made.

We really enjoyed this at Christmas and Easter dinners. It is definitely a "heart attack on a plate" as far as fat/cholesterol content, but you have to splurge once in awhile and this is one of our splurges. didn's change anything in the recipe.

I gave this 3 stars because my husband will eat anything with potatoes in it but I thought it was insipid. If I ever make it again, I will kick it up a notch with perhaps sausage, chopped red/green peppers, cayenne pepper, more cheddar cheese, etc. It did bake beautifully and assembled well in one pan. I was just disappointed it was so low on flavor.

This was a flavorful, creamy hashbrown casserole but it did not come close to the Hashbrown Casserole at Cracker Barrel (unfortunately). This is not a recipe for the calorie conscious with all the butter and sour cream but it is very creamy. The one thing that I noticed is that the soup, sour cream, butter, and onion mixture is thick, and I had to spread it on top of the shredded potatoes. The sauce did not move through to the bottom of the potatoes after baking, so next time I think I'm going to mix the potatoes with the cream mixture prior to putting it in the pan - mixing in some of the shredded cheese sounds like a good idea as mentioned by Joy1996. Thanks for sharing your recipe!
