How to Thaw Frozen Hashbrowns for Casserole
For this recipe, we recommend thawing out the frozen hashbrowns before mixing with the other ingredients. These steps helps keep the moisture out of the casserole if baked with frozen hashbrowns.
  • Place frozen hashbrown bag in the fridge and let thaw overnight.
  • You can also place frozen hashbrowns in a bowl and cover. Let frozen hashbrowns thaw at room temperature for about 30 minutes. Drain in moisture before mixing with other ingredients.
