Description

Savory Sweet Potato Hash Browns are crispy, golden, and full of flavor. These easy-to-make hashbrowns are the perfect side dish or breakfast treat, finished in the oven for extra crunch.


Ingredients

Scale

1 large sweet potato, peeled (approx. 3½ cups)

2 tablespoons grated onion

2 eggs

1 tablespoon plain flour

1/4 teaspoon kosher salt (adjust to taste)

2 tablespoons vegetable oil (use more if required)


Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

2. Coarsely grate the sweet potato.

3. Place the grated sweet potato into a bowl of cold water, swirl to release starch, then drain.

4. Squeeze out excess moisture using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels until dry.

5. In a medium bowl, combine the grated sweet potato, onion, eggs, flour, and salt. Mix well until combined.

6. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

7. Scoop heaping tablespoons of the mixture into the skillet and gently flatten with a spatula.

8. Cook for 3–4 minutes on each side until golden brown.

9. Transfer cooked hashbrowns to a baking sheet.

10. Once all patties are browned, bake in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes to finish cooking and crisp up.

11. Remove from the oven and serve hot with sour cream or your favorite dip.

Notes
