Recipe Makes (Approximate): 4 hash brown patties

Equipment

  • air fryer
  • neutral spray oil must be safe for air fryers, see Notes
  • Tongs or spatula

Ingredients

  • 4 frozen hash brown patties (any brand)
  • salt (to taste, optional)

Instructions

  • Preheat air fryer to 400° Fahrenheit. Once air fryer has preheated, remove basket and lightly spritz bottom of basket with neutral oil.
  • Place 4 frozen hash brown patties in air fryer in one flat layer, making sure not to stack or overlap hash brown patties.
  • Optional: For fast-food-style hash brown patties, lightly spritz tops of patties with neutral oil and sprinkle salt onto each patty to taste.
  • Place basket in preheated air fryer. Air fry hash browns 5 minutes, then remove basket and flip hash browns over. Return basket to air fryer and air fry hash browns 4 minutes more.
  • After 4 minutes, begin checking doneness of hash browns. If needed, continue air frying hash browns 1 to 3 minute more or until hash browns are golden, crispy, and warmed through completely.
  • When desired doneness is achieved, carefully remove hash brown patties from air fryer and serve as desired.

Recipe Notes

  • Spray Oil: Use a neutral oil in an oil spritzer. Aerosolized cooking sprays can damage the coating on the air fryer basket.
  • Hash Brown Patties: Cook straight from freezer, do not thaw first.
  • Cook Time: Every air fryer is different. Your hash brown patties should be ready in roughly 10-12 minutes, but check them often and adjust the cook time as needed so they don't come out under- or over-done.
  • Make it Gluten Free: Use frozen hash brown patties that are specifically gluten free, or double-check the ingredients list for hash brown patties that may not say "gluten free" but don't use any gluten-containing ingredients or cross-contaminants.
