Funeral Potatoes are a creamy, cheesy baked casserole made with hash browns and a crunchy topping, perfect as a comforting side dish for gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
  • 2 cups sour cream
  • 4 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup melted butter
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 1 bag (32 oz) frozen shredded hash browns, thawed
  • 2 cups crushed cornflakes
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter (for topping)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, mix together cream of chicken soup, sour cream, melted butter, chopped onion, shredded cheddar cheese, and thawed hash browns. Season with salt and pepper.
  3. Transfer the mixture to a greased 9×13 inch baking dish and spread evenly.
  4. In a separate bowl, combine crushed cornflakes with 2 tablespoons melted butter. Sprinkle evenly over the potato mixture.
  5. Bake uncovered for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and casserole is heated through.
  6. Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving.

Notes

For a vegetarian version, substitute the cream of chicken soup with cream of mushroom soup. This dish pairs excellently with a fresh green salad.
