Air Fryer breakfast potatoes are an easy air fryer recipe that is ready in 15-20 minutes! Easy to make, these crispy breakfast potatoes combine simple ingredients and are a great breakfast side dish that's crispy on the outside and tender, fluffy inside.
I will serve these delicious air fryer breakfast potatoes with ketchup, sour cream, hot sauce or topped with shredded cheese and crisp, crumbled bacon.
With a crispy exterior, these air-fried diced potatoes are perfect for serving with a sunny-side-up egg, sous vide egg bites, french toast sticks, avocado toast or other Sunday brunch items.

Add another layer of flavor to your air fryer home fries by adding a few diced bell peppers, diced sweet onions, or even a handful of diced red onions. Just be sure to add another tablespoon of oil to the pepper/onion/potato mixture and a sprinkle more of the seasoning blend.
