2-Ingredient Air Fryer Hash Brown Patties
Ingredients
-
Frozen shredded hash browns (about 2 cups)
-
Salt (to taste)
That’s it! No oil needed if your air fryer is nonstick.
(Optional add-ins at the end if you want extra flavor.)
Instructions
-
Preheat air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
-
Thaw hash browns completely and squeeze out as much moisture as possible using a clean towel or paper towels (this is key for crispiness).
-
Season with salt and mix well.
-
Form patties (about ½ inch thick).
-
Place patties in the air fryer basket in a single layer.
-
Air fry for 10 minutes, flip, then cook another 8–10 minutes until golden and crispy.
-
Serve hot!
Optional Flavor Boosts (still easy!)
(Not required, but great if you want variety)
-
Black pepper
-
Garlic powder
-
Onion powder
-
Grated Parmesan
-
Spray of oil for extra crisp
Tips for Best Results
-
Don’t overcrowd the basket.
-
Drier potatoes = crispier patties.
-
Flip carefully to keep them intact.
