These Air Fryer Sweet Potato Hash Browns have the perfect golden edges, a soft center, and that natural sweetness that just works with eggs, bacon, or even on their own. I’ve been testing air fryer recipes for years, so trust me when I say this one works. No guesswork, no soggy middles—just well-seasoned, crispy hash browns made with simple ingredients. If you’re tired of the same old breakfast rotation, these are a game-changer.
Throughout the week I am in such a hurry in the mornings. I usually have a grab and go breakfast. I want to make a goal to have a sit-down breakfast on the weekend.

The paleo diet follows the principle of eating similar to cavemen. You can eat anything that could be hunt and gathered.
Paleo excludes dairy, legumes, grains, and processed food.
While I do not have experience with these diets, I have done a lot of research over the years about food.
It has been almost four years since the last time I was on an official diet. This is also the last time I was heavily focused on weight loss. Since then, I have adopted a more holistic approach to my lifestyle. I focus more on the health benefits of food and I exercise regularly.
Sweet potatoes pack a lot of health benefits. Sweet potatoes are high in antioxidants, can help stabilize blood sugar, enhances immunity, and assists with weight loss.
Did I forget to mention, sweet potatoes are delicious? These hashbrowns are the perfect sweet and savory treat! If sweet and savory isn't your thing, feel free to exclude the garlic and seasonings. The spice of the cinnamon alone tastes great.
There is so much you can do with the Air Fryer with additional accessories. Check these out!

Ingredients
Instructions
- Grate the sweet potatoes using the largest holes of a cheese grater.
- Place the sweet potatoes in a bowl of cold water. Allow the sweet potatoes to soak for 20-25 minutes. Soaking the sweet potatoes in cold water will help remove the starch from the potatoes. This makes them crunchy.
- Drain the water from the potatoes and dry them completely using a paper towel.
- Place the potatoes in a dry bowl. Add the olive oil, garlic, paprika, and salt and pepper to taste. Stir to combine the ingredients.
- Add the potatoes to the air fryer.
- Cook for ten minutes on 400 degrees.
- Open the air fryer and shake the potatoes. Cook for an additional ten minutes.
- Cool before serving.

Canola oil is not Whole30 nor Paleo compliant. I'm assuming you can substitute with more olive oil and/or avocado oil.
Fournier says
When an air fryer is for you, there are a good deal of alternatives out there. It does not take up a lot of unnecessary space on the kitchen countertop. It has a small size and is easy to carry. You desire an easy and basic Air Fryer.
