Instructions
For Hash Brown Patties
- Preheat the air fryer to 400
- Place the patties in the air fryer basket evenly spaced in a single layer.

- Using tongs or a spatula turn them over. Spray the other side lightly with oil and sprinkle with salt.
- Continue air frying for another 5 minutes or until they are the desired level of crispy and golden brown.
For Country/ Diced Style Hash Browns
- Preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees f
- Place the hashbrowns in a large bowl and add in 1 tablespoon of your favorite cooking oil. Toss or stir the potatoes to evenly coat.
- Place the frozen hash browns in the bottom of the air fryer basket the pieces can be touching and overlapping but don’t overcrowd the basket. I find my air fryer can hold 3 cups comfortably. Sprinkle them with salt to season.
- Air fry for 10 minutes.
- Toss or stir the potatoes sprinkle with a little more salt and continue to air fry for 10 more minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
For Shredded Style Hash Browns
- Preheat the air fryer to 370 degrees
- Frozen shredded hash browns can be a little bit tricky depending on the size of the holes in your air fryer’s basket. If the holes are large you may want to use a parchment basket liner to keep them in the basket. Be sure to use one with holes so that the air can circulate well.
- Spread out the shredded hashbrowns in a thin layer in your air fryer basket, mine can hold about 3 cups comfortably. You want them to overlap but not be over crowded.
- Spray the frozen hash browns with oil spray and sprinkle with salt.
- Air fry for 10 minutes.
- Using a spatula gently flip the hash browns. Lightly spray them again and sprinkle with more salt. Continue cooking for 5 minutes or until cooked to desired crispiness.
