Cheesy Hash Brown and Ham Sandwich

By Mark Hinds | Updated January 28, 2025

Cheesy hash brown sandwiches are a delicious breakfast sandwich. All you need is some cheesy hash browns, an English muffin, some ham, and, if you like to gild the lily, a slice of cheese.

Any cheesy hash brown recipe will work for this sandwich, but we recommend our Cheesy Hash Brown Casserole for this and all your cheesy hash brown needs. We also recommend using our Maple Bourbon Glazed Grilled Ham for the ham that has a little sweetness, is very juicy, and is packed with flavor.

These cheesy hash browns are a great sidekick for a good ham

This is one of those recipes that works for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.  It’s also a good reason to make a pan of cheesy hash browns for one or two people knowing they’re all going to get used up.

If you’re serving these sandwiches for breakfast serve them with some Hawaiian POG Juice.  If they’re for one of those brunches that’s going to stretch all afternoon mix up some of our Norwegian POG Cocktails to keep things moving along.

Ingredients

Instructions

  • In a nonstick pan over medium heat, pour a small amount of oil, swirling it around to coat the pan.
  • Take a big scoop of cheesy hash browns and place them in the pan, flattening them out to create a thin layer. Cook the hash browns for 3 to 5 minutes, then flip them over and cook for another 3 to 5 minutes.
  • While the cheesy hash browns are cooking, toast the English muffin, and grab a couple of slices of ham.
  • Once the hash browns have been flipped, add the ham to the pan, turning it occasionally.
  • When the hash browns have been browned on both sides, take them out and place them and the ham on the English muffin. If you feel like you need more cheese, add a slice of your favorite cheese.
  • This cheesy hash brown sandwich is a great way to use leftover hash browns and works well for breakfast, lunch, or brunch.

Notes

Since they’re full of cheesy goodness, some of the hash browns will stick to the pan when you’re cooking them, and that’s ok.
