A quick and easy breakfast recipe featuring crispy layered hash browns, smoky bacon, and melty cheddar cheese, perfect for busy mornings or casual brunches.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups (450 g) frozen shredded hash browns
  • 6–8 bacon strips (preferably thick-cut)
  • 1 ½ cups (150 g) shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 tablespoons (30 g) unsalted butter, melted
  • Salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • 2 tablespoons fresh chives or green onions, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine frozen shredded hash browns with melted unsalted butter, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Toss well to coat evenly.
  2. Preheat Blackstone griddle to medium-high heat (around 375°F). Lay bacon strips flat and cook until crispy, about 5-7 minutes, flipping once. Remove and drain on paper towels.
  3. Lightly grease a ring mold or use hands to shape hash brown mixture into rounds about 3 inches wide and ½ inch thick. Make 6-8 stacks depending on size.
  4. Place hash brown rounds on the hot griddle and cook for about 5 minutes until the bottom is golden brown and crisp. Flip carefully.
  5. On the cooked side, add about 2 tablespoons shredded cheddar cheese and 1-2 bacon strips broken into pieces. Top with another hash brown round to create a stack. Press gently with spatula.
  6. Cook the stacks for another 5-6 minutes, flipping once more if needed, until cheese melts and hash browns are crispy on both sides. Press down occasionally with spatula.
  7. Remove from griddle and sprinkle with freshly chopped chives or green onions. Serve hot.

Notes

Do not thaw frozen hash browns before cooking to maintain crispiness. Use melted butter instead of oil for better flavor and browning. Press stacks firmly when layering to help them hold together. Cook bacon separately to avoid sogginess. Flip carefully with a wide spatula to keep stacks intact. For extra crispiness, sear edges after assembling. Avoid overcrowding the griddle to maintain heat.
