You may have heard this dish called Funeral Potatoes in lieu of Hash Brown Potato Bake. Funeral potatoes is a traditional potato casserole that is popular in the American Intermountain West and Midwest. It is often called “funeral” potatoes because it is commonly served as a side dish during traditional after-funeral dinners, but it is also served at potlucks, and other social gatherings, sometimes with different names.
In my family, we always called it our potato bake, so I didn’t want to change that up! Plus, funeral potatoes sounded sad to me and this dish is anything but!
When I was a kid, my mom would make this dish for any potluck or gathering. It was (and still is) a favorite of mine!
The topping definitely is a favorite of mine. The crunchy cereal layer compliments the creamy potato mixture and combines into a dish you don’t want to pass up!

When I lake the hash brown recipe, I mix in the cheddar cheese to the other ingredients, it keeps the cheese from over browning or burning that way.

I’ve made this many times. Always a hit. But I prefer crushed potato chips instead of the corn flakes.
