Tips:

Every oven differs, but mine needed almost one and a half hours to cook this casserole. Serve with applesauce and sour cream, sprinkled with cinnamon, if desired. 

Variations:

This can be made for Passover using any crumb topping. Try Heaven and Earth Veggie Coating crumbs, Haddar Passover Pretzel Crumbs, or Gefen Nut Crumbs.

What is the sour cream for? What can I use instead?

You add it in at step 5 "Combine onion mixture with potatoes in a large bowl. Mix in eggs and sour cream."
You can use plain greek yogurt instead.
