Nothing says a budget-friendly breakfast like making Hash Browns in the Air Fryer from Scratch! These homemade hash browns are crispy, golden brown, and require just a few simple steps and 6 ingredients.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 pounds about 2 medium-sized potatoes
  • 2 tablespoons
  • ½ teaspoon
  • ½ teaspoon
  • ¼ teaspoon
  • ½ teaspoon

Instructions

  1. Prep the potatoes. First, peel and grate the potatoes. Then, add the shredded potatoes to a large bowl and cover with cold water. Allow the potatoes to soak for at least 10 minutes, ideally about 30 minutes.
  2. Squeeze out as much excess water as possible. After 10-30 minutes, drain and rinse the potatoes well. Transfer the shredded potatoes to a clean lint-free kitchen towel or cheesecloth and squeeze out as much moisture as possible. Pat the potatoes dry and transfer them to a large mixing bowl.
  3. Add seasonings. Season the potatoes with oil, garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper.
  4. Air fry. Transfer the potatoes into an air fryer basket, lightly pressing down until the potato shreds are flattened into an even, single layer. For extra crispy potatoes, lightly spray the top of the hash browns with a little cooking spray like Pam or olive oil spray. Air fry at 360F for 14-18 minutes, or until the homemade hash browns are crispy and golden brown.
  5. Serve. Enjoy these crispy air fryer hash browns while hot as as desired. Enjoy!
