Ingredients
  

2 cups frozen hash browns, thawed

1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

1/2 cup cream cheese, softened to room temperature

1/4 cup fresh green onions, finely chopped

1 large egg, beaten

1/2 tsp garlic powder

1/2 tsp onion powder

1/2 tsp salt

1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper

1 package slider buns (12-count)

Cooking spray or olive oil for greasing

Optional toppings: sliced pickles, ketchup, BBQ sauce, or mayonnaise for serving

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper, or spray it with cooking spray to prevent sticking.

    Prepare the Hash Brown Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, thoroughly combine the thawed hash browns, shredded cheddar cheese, softened cream cheese, chopped green onions, beaten egg, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir until all ingredients are evenly distributed and form a cohesive mixture.

      Form the Sliders: Using a tablespoon, scoop approximately 2 tablespoons of the hash brown mixture and gently shape it into a small patty. Repeat this step until you have formed all the mixture into mini patties; this should yield about 12 sliders.

        Bake the Sliders: Arrange the patties on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are spaced evenly for optimal baking. Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the patties are golden brown with crispy edges.

          Assemble the Sliders: After baking, allow the patties to cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet. Carefully slice each slider bun in half, placing one hash brown patty on the bottom half of each bun. Add any desired toppings, such as sliced pickles, ketchup, BBQ sauce, or mayonnaise, before placing the top half of the bun on each slider.

            Serve and Enjoy: Arrange the mini cheesy hash brown sliders on a serving platter. Serve them warm and enjoy these delightful treats with friends and family!
