Alright, so this morning I was feeling a bit lazy but still wanted something tasty for breakfast. I remembered I had these Trader Joe’s hash browns in my freezer, and I thought, why not try them in my air fryer? It’s super easy, and I’m all about that crispy goodness without the oily mess.
Getting Started
First, I pulled those hash brown patties out of the freezer. They were frozen solid, but that’s no big deal. I preheated my air fryer to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. While it was heating up, I got everything else ready.
The Process
- Step 1: Once the air fryer was hot, I placed the frozen hash brown patties in the basket. I made sure they were in a single layer, not stacked on top of each other, so they could cook evenly.
- Step 2: I set the timer for 8 minutes. I figured this would be a good starting point, and I could always add more time if needed.
- Step 3: Halfway through, at about 4 minutes, I flipped the patties over. This helps them get crispy on both sides.
The Results
After the 8 minutes were up, I checked on them. They looked golden brown and smelled amazing! I like mine extra crispy, so I popped them back in for another 2 minutes. You can adjust the time based on how crispy you like your hash browns. After those extra minutes, they were perfect! Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside – just how I like them.
Final Thoughts
Honestly, making Trader Joe’s hash browns in the air fryer is a total game-changer. It’s quick, easy, and the results are fantastic. Plus, there’s way less oil involved, so it feels a bit healthier too. If you haven’t tried this yet, you totally should. It’s a breakfast win for sure!
