- Shape and ArrangeForm the seasoned potato mixture into small patties, or simply spread the grated potatoes evenly if making a hash. Arrange them in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Avoid overcrowding to ensure even cooking.
- Cook the Hash BrownsAir fry the hash browns at 400°F (200°C) for 10-15 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time. Check for your desired level of crispiness.
- ServeOnce golden and crispy, remove the hash browns from the air fryer and serve immediately. Enjoy with eggs, bacon, or your favorite dipping sauce!
