Cheesy Hash Brown Muffin Cups

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray.
2. Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the thawed hash browns, cheddar cheese, Parmesan cheese, melted butter, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix well.
3. Press Into Muffin Tin: Divide the hash brown mixture evenly among the muffin tin cups. Press the mixture down firmly into the bottom and up the sides of each muffin cup to form a nest-like shape.
4. Bake Hash Browns: Place the muffin tin in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the edges of the hash browns turn golden brown and crispy.
5. Prepare Egg Mixture: While the hash brown cups are baking, whisk together the eggs and sour cream in a separate bowl. Season with a little salt and pepper.
6. Add Egg Mixture to Hash Browns: Remove the muffin tin from the oven and pour the egg mixture into each hash brown cup.
7. Bake Again: Place the muffin tin back in the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the egg mixture is fully set and the tops are golden.
8. Garnish and Serve: Remove the hash brown cups from the oven and allow them to cool slightly. Garnish with chopped chives or green onions if desired. Serve warm.
