- 30 oz frozen hash browns thawed
- 4 strips bacon chopped
- 3 Tablespoon butter
- 1 small onion diced (about 1 cup)
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup milk
- 1 1/4 cups reduced sodium chicken broth
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon ground mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 3 oz cream cheese cut into pieces
- 3 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese divided
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella
- 2/3 cup sour cream
- 3 Tablespoons finely sliced green onions
Preheat oven to 350F (175C) and lightly butter a casserole dish. Set aside.
Place chopped (uncooked) bacon in a large pot or Dutch oven and cook over medium heat until crisp and cooked through. Remove bacon to a paper towel lined plate and drain all but about 1 ½ Tablespoons of grease.
Add butter to the pot and allow it to melt. Add chopped onions and cook, stirring frequently until softened (3-5 minutes).
Sprinkle flour over onion and whisk until smooth (should be like a paste).
Gradually add milk while whisking. Add broth, garlic powder, onion powder, ground mustard, salt, and pepper and stir well. Bring to a boil.
Once mixture begins to boil, reduce heat, bring to a simmer, and stir frequently until thickened.
Reduce heat to low and add cream cheese, 2 cups (226g) cheddar, mozzarella, and sour cream. Stir until cheeses are melted and mixture is smooth.
Add hash browns, green onion, and cooked bacon pieces. Stir well and pour into prepared casserole dish, sprinkle evenly with remaining 1 cup (113g) cheddar cheese.
Transfer to 350ºF (175ºC) oven and bake 35 minutes until heated through and cheese on top is melted.
