By Paula Deen

JUMP TO RECIPE

Difficulty: Easy

Prep time: 10 minutes

Cook time: 10 minutes

Servings: 10

Ingredients

  • 3 cups thawed and drained frozen shredded hash browns
  • 4 tablespoons melted butter
  • 3 large beaten eggs
  • 1 cup half and half
  • 3/4 cup cooked diced ham
  • 1/2 cup diced green onions
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Directions

Preheat oven to 450 °F.

Gently press the drained hash browns between paper towels to dry them as best as possible. In a 9-inch pie plate, toss the hash browns with the melted butter into the plate. Press them into the bottom and up the sides to form a crust. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until golden brown and starting to crisp.

Meanwhile, in a large mixing bowl, combine the remaining ingredients. When the hash brown crust is ready pour the egg mixture over it and return to the oven.

Lower the oven temperature to 350 °F and bake for about 30 minutes until the quiche is light golden brown on top and puffed.

This will definitely be on my dinner table tomorrow night, was going to make tonight but my son just told me he won't be home for dinner grrr, But I am going to shred up some potatoes I need to use up myself instead of buying frozen this time glad I read the reviews that someone asked you about using fresh potatoes because I would of probably just shredded & used them as is instead of cold water bath. Thanks Paula Deen your the best!!

Can I use shredded fresh potatoes instead of frozen and get the same results?

Yes you will want to shred them and place in a bowl of cold water, then drain and add more cold water a few times to remove starch from the fresh potatoes.

Can I bake the hash brown crust the day before?

We would recommend parbaking it and finishing it off the next day, otherwise, it won't be crispy!
