Start your day with nutrient-packed sweet potato and quinoa patties, air-fried for crispiness. Perfect for a quick, healthy breakfast win!
Ingredients
- • medium sweet potatoes: 2, peeled and grated
- • cooked quinoa: 1 cup
- • large egg: 1
- • fresh parsley: 1/4 cup, chopped
- • green onions: 2, finely chopped
- • ground cumin: 1 teaspoon
- • smoked paprika: 1/2 teaspoon
- • salt: 1/2 teaspoon
- • black pepper: 1/4 teaspoon
- • olive oil spray: as needed
Instructions
- 1 Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
- 2 In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated sweet potatoes, cooked quinoa, egg, chopped parsley, and green onions. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
- 3 Season the mixture with ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir to ensure the spices are well incorporated.
- 4 Form the mixture into 8 equal-sized patties, pressing firmly to ensure they hold together.
- 5 Lightly spray the air fryer basket with olive oil. Place the patties in a single layer, leaving space between each one. You may need to cook them in batches.
- 6 Air fry the patties for 10 minutes, then flip them over and cook for an additional 5-10 minutes until they are golden brown and crispy.
- 7 Remove the patties from the air fryer and let them cool slightly before serving.
Serving Suggestions
- • Serve these crispy patties with a side of fresh avocado slices or a dollop of Greek yogurt for added creaminess. Pair them with a simple salad of mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, and a light vinaigrette to enhance the freshness of the meal. For a refreshing beverage, consider a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice or a green smoothie packed with spinach, banana, and almond milk. This combination will provide a balanced breakfast that is both satisfying and energizing.
Storage Tips
Store any leftover patties in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, simply pop them back into the air fryer for a few minutes until warmed through and crispy. Freezing is also an option; place patties in a single layer on a baking sheet, freeze until solid, then transfer to a freezer bag. Reheat from frozen in the air fryer at 350°F (175°C) for 10-15 minutes.
