Method
 

Directions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it reaches the ideal temperature for baking.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the thawed frozen hashbrowns, shredded cheese, bacon bits, chopped green onions, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Stir until all ingredients are thoroughly mixed.
  3. Using your hands, take portions of the mixture and shape them into tablespoon-sized round patties. Place them on a plate.
  4. Lightly grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper. Transfer the shaped bites onto the prepared sheet, ensuring they are spaced evenly.
  5. Bake the Loaded Hashbrown Bites for 25 to 30 minutes until they are golden brown and crispy. Flip them halfway through for even browning, if desired.
  6. Remove from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauces.
