Ingredients

  • 4.2 ounce box dried hashbrowns or 10 ounces frozen
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper

Instructions

  • Prep the hashbrowns. Add hot water to the box of hashbrowns and let sit per box instructions until water is absorbed. Place hashbrowns onto the air fryer tray. Spray with nonstick cooking spray and season with salt and pepper.
  • Air Fry. Preheat air fryer to 400°F. Cook for 7 minutes then flip and spray with additional cooking spray. Cook for an additional 7-8 minutes or until golden brown.

Notes

  • For more flavor, use butter-flavored cooking spray.
  • You can also add extra spices, like garlic powder, paprika, seasoning salt, Italian seasoning, or even a touch of Montreal Steak Spice.
  • Watch these carefully, and don't forget to flip them for the best browning.
  • Don't overcrowd your pan. If you need more than your pan or basket can hold, work in batches.
