Description
These Hot Honey Sweet Potato Hash Browns are a must-try! With just the right amount of kick from red pepper flakes and a drizzle of honey, they’re oven-baked for a lighter take on classic hash browns.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 large sweet potato, shredded (about 4 cups or 440 grams)
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 tablespoons honey (use hot honey if you like extra heat!)
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- 2 tsp onion powder
- 4 tsp dried oregano
- 2 tsp salt and pepper
- 1 tsp red pepper flakes (adjust for spice level)
- 1 egg, beaten
- 3 tablespoons almond flour
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Prepare the Sweet Potato: Peel the sweet potato and shred it using a box grater or mandoline for even pieces. This step helps ensure a crispy texture for these sweet potato hash browns.
- Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the shredded sweet potato with olive oil, honey, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Add the beaten egg and almond flour, mixing until fully combined. This blend of seasonings and hot honey gives a spicy sweet flavor that’s perfect for these hash browns.
- Shape the Hash Browns: Using your hands or a spoon, scoop about 2 tablespoons of the mixture to form small balls, then flatten them slightly with the back of a spoon. Arrange them on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake: Place the hash browns in the oven and bake for 35 minutes. Flip each hash brown and bake for an additional 25 minutes, or until they’re golden brown and crispy.
- Cool and Serve: Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Serve warm and enjoy!
Notes
If you don’t like the spice, you can simply omit the red pepper flakes for a sweeter version of this recipe.
