Your breakfast plate isn’t complete without these crispy air fryer hash browns. Using only frozen hash brown patties, you’ll toss ’em in the air fryer, give ’em a flip, and enjoy. Cooking hash browns has never been so easy.

Homemade hash browns are a family favorite but sometimes I simply don’t have time for all the prep work fresh hash browns take. Using frozen has been a game changer!

Air frying frozen potatoes ensures a perfect crispy texture without the oil frying that other cooking methods can’t. These are the perfect addition to my breakfast burrito bowl or just simply with a fried egg and maple chicken sausage patties.

Recipe FAQs

How should I store leftover hash browns?

I suggest only cooking what you’ll eat, but you can always reheat them in the air fryer if you make too many. They will last about 2 days in the fridge.

Notes

  • The nutritional information will vary depending on the brand of hashbrowns you purchase. I am using TJ Farms Select Hashbrown Patties, which can be found at my local grocery store.ย
