AIR FRYER BREAKFAST CASSEROLE RECIPE
What goes better together than eggs and potatoes? Almost nothing, in my opinion. This hash brown and egg breakfast casserole is really easy to put together.
The casserole bakes in the air fryer in just fifteen minutes, and will fill up your belly with a delicious, hearty breakfast.
You need just six simple ingredients for this yummy air fryer casserole.
INGREDIENTS IN AIR FRYER BREAKFAST CASSEROLE
Frozen Hash Browns - For this recipe, I use the shredded hash brown potatoes that you find in the freezer section.
Hard Boiled Eggs - Boiled and then diced in a similar size to your potatoes.
Salt - You will need to season this casserole with a good amount of salt for flavor.
Pepper - Black pepper is the other simple seasoning in this recipe.
Milk - Adds moisture to the mixture.
Flour - Helps to bind everything together. I use a gluten free all purpose flour. Regular AP flour is fine too.
Scallions - Optional as a garnish.
Fresh Parsley- Also optional, but gives a burst of color and freshness to this dish.

WHAT TO SERVE WITH AIR FRYER BREAKFAST CASSEROLE
This simple egg and potato recipe is great on it's own, but it would be even better with some air fryer bacon or air fryer sausage patties.
Add some fresh fruit and a cup of coffee and you'll be ready for a lazy weekend breakfast or a brunch for friends!
BREAKFAST CASSEROLE WITHOUT CHEESE?
I've always made this recipe without cheese, but I have seen variations on it that include some cheddar cheese either melted inside or on top of the dish. Try it if you are a fan of cheesy casseroles.
Making this recipe with oatmilk or water instead of the milk makes it dairy-free. With the alternate milk and gluten free flour, you have a gluten free and dairy free breakfast casserole.
WHAT TO ADD TO HARDBOILED EGG CASSEROLE
I mentioned that you can serve bacon or sausage on the side of this breakfast casserole, but you could also just put the breakfast meat inside of the casserole to get all of the flavors melded together.
Cook your bacon, ham, or sausage first, and then dice it up before adding to the mixture.
HOW TO REHEAT BREAKFAST CASSEROLE
If you want to reheat leftovers of this dish, reheat them right in the air fryer.
Place one to two servings in an air fryer pot or oven safe bowl and air fry at 350 F for 5-8 minutes until warmed through.

Pro Tips
- Use Any Air Fryer: This recipe can be made in an air fryer unit with a basket or an air fryer oven. If you're using an air fryer oven, place your food on the middle rack and select the "air fry" function.
- Check your food as it cooks! Since each air fryer runs differently, sometimes air frying is a trial and error process. When cooking a new recipe, be sure to check on your food often. This will help you avoid over or undercooking, and help you learn your air fryer's specific ways!

This is such an interesting recipe for a breakfast casserole - I love that it's made with no cheese, most egg recipes are and I don't eat cheese. Thank you!
