Ingredients

• 20 oz Frozen shredded hash browns
• 4 tbsp Unsalted butter
• 6 Eggs
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
• 1 cup Cooked bacon or ham, diced
• 1 cup Spinach, chopped
• 1 tsp Salt
• 0.5 tsp Black pepper
• 0.5 tsp Garlic powder

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9-inch pie dish or quiche pan with a small amount of butter.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, melt 4 tablespoons of butter over low heat. In a large bowl, combine the melted butter with the frozen shredded hash browns, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and pepper. Mix well to coat.

Step 3

Press the hash brown mixture firmly into the greased dish, spreading evenly across the bottom and up the sides to form the crust. Make sure there are no gaps.

Step 4

Bake the hash brown crust in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes or until it starts to crisp and lightly brown. Remove from the oven and set aside.

Step 5

In another large bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt, garlic powder, and additional pepper until fully combined.

Step 6

Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, cooked bacon or ham, and chopped spinach to the egg mixture. Mix until evenly distributed.

Step 7

Pour the egg filling into the baked hash brown crust, spreading it out evenly.

Step 8

Return the dish to the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the center of the quiche is set and no longer jiggles when shaken.

Step 9

Remove the quiche from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Step 10

Serve warm and enjoy your delicious hash brown quiche!
