  • Heat butter and oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
  • Place the assembled hash browns in the skillet and cook until golden brown and crispy on both sides, about 4-5 minutes per side.
  • Serve hot and enjoy your crispy, cheesy stuffed hash browns!

Notes

For variations, try adding sautéed spinach, mushrooms, or diced ham to the stuffing. You can also use mozzarella or pepper jack cheese for a different flavor.
