How to Make Crab Stuffed Hash Browns

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Thaw 2 lbs frozen hash browns completely. Microwave or thaw overnight in the refrigerator.
  3. Dice 4 slices bacon and cook until crispy. Set aside, reserving 2 tablespoons of bacon grease.
  4. While bacon cooks, prepare the crab stuffing: In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup cooked crab meat, 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 1/4 cup finely chopped green onions, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  5. In a large bowl, combine: 1/4 cup melted butter (from the reserved bacon grease), 10.75 oz can condensed cream of mushroom soup, 1/2 cup sour cream, 4 oz cream cheese (softened), cooked bacon, and 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese.
  6. Gently fold in the thawed hash browns.
  7. Lightly grease a 3-quart casserole dish.
  8. Spread half of the potato mixture in the bottom of the casserole dish.
  9. Layer the crab stuffing evenly over the potatoes, leaving a small border.
  10. Top with the remaining potato mixture.
  11. In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup melted butter and 1/2 cup bread crumbs. Sprinkle evenly over the top.
  12. Bake for 60-75 minutes, or until golden brown and heated through. Let rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.
