Sweet Potato Hash Browns

After the success of my Crispy Golden Hash Browns, I wanted to create some Sweet Potato ones. I experimented by trying various different techniques and think this is by far the best result for Oven Baked Sweet Potato Hash Browns.

I already have my Spiralled Sweet Potato Hash which is great for breakfast, but when you want more of a Pattie type hash brown, then this is the recipe for you.

The only difficult part to these Sweet Potato Hash Browns, is grating the darn sweet potato (think of that body magic, working those arms lol), but of you want it grated quick then a food processor with a grater attachment is an awesome tool too.

How to bind together Grated Sweet Potato for Hash Browns

To make the Sweet Potato Hash Browns, you need an egg white and a little cornstarch (or arrowroot flour or tapioca starch will work too). Then add your seasoning and form into hash browns.

I like a more rustic look, so just kind of roughly shape on the tray using my hands, but if you want a more perfect circle, you can use something like these egg rings to get the perfect round shape.

Can Sweet Potato Hash Browns be Frozen?

These sweet potato hash browns can also be frozen, I recommend part baking, just to get them to hold together and then allow to cool and freeze, by placing on a tray lined with parchment paper, once frozen, you can then add to a freezer bag or container and then all you have to do is finish off the baking from frozen - nice and easy and perfect for breakfast when you are in a rush.

Do I need Parchment Paper for baking?

For certain thing it's a must. The last thing you want is perfectly cooked sweet potato hash browns only to find they have stuck to the tray and you can't get them off. The parchment paper will make it so easy to flip these and guess what? less mess on your tray, so easy clean up afterwards too.

What to serve with Sweet Potato Hash Browns?

Wondering what to serve with these perfectly golden Sweet Potato Hash Browns? For me it has to be a perfect Sunny Side up Egg, some Avocado and some micro-greens.

Don't be afraid to enjoy some Avocado for breakfast, check out this post here: Avocado on Slimming Eats. It is super healthy and is easy to fit into any healthy eating regime you are following. It's regularly featured in my breakfasts.

Occasionally I use two of these as a bun for one of these Homemade Pork Sausage Patties and an egg - yummy!!
