Air Fryer Breakfast Potatoes

Air Fryer Breakfast Potatoes are small cubes of gold potatoes and bell pepper seasoned with a blend of chili powder, smoked paprika, onion powder, salt, and pepper, then cooked in the air fryer until crispy on the outside and tender inside. This method provides a convenient way to prepare flavorful potatoes quickly with an appealing texture and mild smoky warmth, suitable as a hearty side for breakfast or brunch.

Description

This recipe calls for dicing gold potatoes and bell pepper into roughly quarter-inch cubes. The potatoes and peppers are tossed with avocado oil and a seasoning mix of salt, black pepper, chili powder, smoked paprika, and onion powder for balanced savory and smoky notes. The mixture is cooked in batches in a preheated air fryer at 400°F.

Cooking in two batches ensures even crisping. After 8 minutes of cooking, the potatoes are tossed and cooked an additional 7 minutes for a well-browned exterior. The potatoes should have a crispy texture outside while being tender inside. The recipe notes that the second batch may cook faster and be adjusted accordingly. Coarse sea salt can be added at the end for extra flavor.

This dish works well as a breakfast side to eggs or as a flavorful addition to brunch plates. The combination of spices gives a gentle smoky spice profile that complements the natural sweetness of the bell pepper and the richness of gold potatoes.

Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 lbs gold potatoes
  • 1 bell pepper any color
  • 2 tbsp avocado oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1/8 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • sea salt coarse, to taste

Instructions

  1. Cube potatoes and bell pepper into small cubes - about 1/4" on each side. Combine salt, pepper, chili powder, smoked paprika, and onion powder in a small bowl. Toss potatoes and peppers in the avocado oil and then the seasoning blend. Toss until each piece is evenly coated in the seasoning.
  2. Preheat air fryer to 400F for about 5 minutes. Pour half of the seasoned potatoes and bell pepper into the air fryer basket or tray. I find these cook best if you cook them in two batches.
  3. Cook potatoes in the air fryer at 400F for 8 minutes. Toss the potatoes and cook for another 7 minutes. Remove that batch of potatoes from the air fryer and repeat with the second batch.  **The second batch may cook faster. Taste the potatoes and season with additional coarse sea salt to taste.
