Recipe Notes
- You may use frozen hashbrowns for this recipe. However, you need to thaw them out in the refrigerator overnight.
- If you would rather microwave the frozen hashbrowns, you can do that too. Make sure you drain the potatoes in a colander and pat them dry before you put them in the baking pan.
- Make sure you coat your pan with a non-stick spray. It’s really important to make sure it doesn’t stick to the pan.
