There is nothing like going to a diner and getting those crispy hash browns. But what do you do when you’re at home and the potato craving hits?

You make these Gluten Free Hash Browns in the Oven!

In this particular recipe, I used sweet potato. However, you can use any type of potato. My other favorite to use are Yukon Gold potatoes.

The potatoes are baked in the oven and come out incredibly crispy. They’re full of flavor and an extra bonus is that they’re good for you too!

What are the health benefits of sweet potatoes?

Sweet potato is one of my all time favorite ingredients. Not just because they’re delicious but they have so many health benefits as well.

To start, sweet potatoes strengthen the immune system, support digestion and support eye health.

In addition, sweet potatoes contain anti-inflammatory properties and support healthy blood sugar levels. What more could you want from the sweet potato?!

Sweet potatoes are versatile and can be used in a variety of ways. I use them in savory recipes for lunch/dinner, breakfast recipes and even in some baking!

Frequently Asked Questions

Are sweet potato hash browns healthy?

This recipe is extremely healthy! Besides the nutritional benefits of sweet potato (see section above), there are only a few ingredients used to make this recipe.

By baking instead of frying the potatoes, it is also a much healthier option!

What holds the sweet potato together?

The egg is the binder in this recipe bringing it all together.

Do I need to take the skin off of the sweet potato?

Not necessary for the recipe but you can if you prefer. I tend to leave it on and just grate the potato with it.

There are a lot of healthy nutrients in the skin of a sweet potato so I prefer to keep it in the recipe but that is personal preference.

Can I store this for later?

Yes! Store in an airtight container for 3-5 days or up to 1 month in the freezer.

How do I reheat these hash browns?

You can reheat them in the microwave for 45-60 seconds. However, I recommend reheating them in the oven so that they still come out nice and crispy!

Heat in the oven for about 10 minutes at 400 degrees F. You can also flip after 7 minutes, baking the hash brown patties for an additional 5-8 minutes on the other side.
