Ingredients
Scale
- 4 frozen hash brown patties
- 2 ripe avocados
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon lime juice (or more to taste)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Optional toppings: poached or fried eggs, sliced jalapeños, cherry tomatoes, feta cheese, hot sauce, fresh cilantro
Instructions
- Cook hash brown patties according to package directions until crispy and golden brown (usually about 20 minutes in the oven or air fryer).
- While hash browns are cooking, scoop avocados into a bowl. Add red pepper flakes, garlic powder, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Mash until well combined but still a little chunky.
- Once hash browns are done, place them on a plate and spread the smashed avocado mixture evenly over each.
- Add your favorite toppings—eggs, jalapeños, tomatoes, feta, or hot sauce for extra spice and flavor.
- Serve immediately while the hash browns are still warm and crispy.
Notes
- To make it extra spicy, mix hot sauce or a dash of cayenne into the avocado mash.
- This recipe is naturally gluten-free—just make sure your hash browns are certified GF.
- Make it vegan by skipping cheese or eggs and adding plant-based toppings like sautéed mushrooms or tofu crumbles.
- Perfect for brunch boards or served in halves as appetizers.
