Stepwise Pictures
Take frozen patties in a plate.

Preheat air fryer at 200 C or 390 F for 4 minutes.
Lay the hash brown patties in one layer. I normally cook 4 in one batch but you can easily do 1-2 too if air frying for one person.

Air fry at 200 C or 400 F for about 10-12 minutes till they are golden brown. You can air fry for 14 minutes for a crunchy brown appearance.
You can flip the patties once midway.
Keep checking on them after 10 minutes to see how crisp they look. The time may vary a bit depending upon your air fryer as well as the size of the hash brown patties.

I have tested this recipe in Cosori Air fryer. I can make 6 patties at one go. For my family of 4 I do 2 batches.

Take them out and serve them hot with ketchup or a dip for a satisfying snack or with eggs and sautéed veggies along with sausages for a hearty breakfast. Enjoy!
Storage Tips
Leftover patties can be refrigerated in air tight container. Reheat in air fryer and consume within two days.
FAQs
