Homemade Hashbrowns, I was so scared to learn How To Make Homemade Hashbrowns!! Would you believe that while I love hashbrowns I had never tried to make them until this past year!! Now all the kids are hooked onto making them and it has helped to get them in the kitchen cooking too. (I have included affiliate links to products I love.

Now when we do splurge and go eat out the hashbrowns are always the biggest hit. It adds up eating out on a budget so we tend to make a big brunch most weekends, and now I can say we include the hash browns in this since I figured out how to make them at home!! Now we make ours with gold potatoes but you can really use any type of potatoes.

Homemade Hashbrowns Directions:
Rinse and peel your potatoes, you don’t have to peel them but my kids prefer the potatoes to be peeled
Pat dry off your potatoes after they are peeled
Using a food processor shred your potatoes using the shredded cheese blade, Amazon hasn’t had my food processor in stock for years but a big high-quality one is worth the money it can help you to save so much money in the long run. I bought mine in 2013 and it is still going, I use mine for so many different things and so much easier than a cheese grater, your knuckles will thank you!

Once your potatoes are shredded into slices, place them into an over the sink strainer and rinse them off. This helps to remove the excess starch from the potatoes.
I normally let mine chill in the basket for about ten minutes and kinda keep pushing down on them to help strain out more of the water as well
On a big plate (or two plates) layout paper towels and then scoop your shredded potatoes on to the paper towels
Take another paper towel and press down to squeeze more water out. You may have to repeat this process a couple times, this helps them to cook faster. My son Michael loves to do this step!
Now you can make these in a pan on the stove but if you are making a huge batch I use my electric griddle it makes it so much easier and it heats up evenly the whole time. Plus you can cook eggs, bacon, gravy, and other on the stove top as well.

Drizzle Avocado oil on the griddle and allow it to heat up. I tend to turn my griddle on all the way up to help the hash browns cook faster
Place your potatoes on the griddle and season to taste with Johnny’s seasoning salt, garlic salt, and salt and pepper.
Use a Silicone Spatula to flip around the hashbrowns until they are nice and browned!!
Serve and enjoy!!
I love to add mine to a protein filled breakfast! Its just the perfect combination, plus it will keep me full until dinner when we have a late breakfast!
