Ingredients
Equipment
Steps
- 1
No need to thaw — use frozen hash browns directly.
- 2
Toss with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- 3
Spread in an even layer in the air fryer. Press down slightly to compact.
- 4
Air fry at 400°F for 10-12 minutes, flipping the hash brown patty halfway (or shaking if loose), until deeply golden and crispy.
- 5
Serve with eggs, bacon, ketchup, and hot sauce.
Tip: Starting from frozen is actually better — less moisture for crispier results. Press them into a patty for a diner-style hash brown, or leave loose for a more shredded texture. The more you compact them, the crispier the outside and softer the inside.
