    Air Fryer Breakfast Potatoes

    I’m a sucker for a good diner-styled breakfast. A huge platter of eggs, bacon, and potatoes hits the spot every time. My favourite part is the crispy potatoes (also known as home fries) – in my opinion, they are the highlight of the meal and nothing beats it. They’re crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside. However, since moving, I haven’t found a diner within walking distance so I’ve been making my own crispy breakfast potatoes at home.

    I preferred using my air fryer to make breakfast potatoes since it’s a pretty hands off process. No need to worry about flipping or moving them. You just pop it into the air fryer and with a shake or two, they come out perfect! The air fryer definitely makes breakfast easier as it’s one less thing that needs your full attention in the kitchen. So here’s how you make crispy breakfast potatoes in the air fryer.

    Tips and Notes

    • If needed, cook the diced potatoes in the air fryer in two batches. By avoiding overcrowding the air fryer, you get crispier home fries!
    • Try to make sure the diced potatoes are similar in size as it makes sure they cook evenly.
    • This recipe was tested in the Philips XXL air fryer.

      Five stars!! This was super quick and easy with little mess to clean up. The cook time and temperature were perfect as well. The potatoes came out golden brown and after sprinkling shredded cheese over the top, I enjoyed a plate. Will definitely be making it again!!
