Servings Ideas
Take your time and enjoy breakfast this weekend by adding my baked home fries recipe to your spread. They’re a great match for my banana nut muffins, banana pancakes, chia overnight oats, coconut chia pudding, or no-yogurt overnight oats to give you something sweet to complement those savory flavors. Or make the whole meal savory with my avocado protein toast or vegan scrambled tofu. Finished it off with a refreshing drink such as this mango matcha latte, berry smash mocktail, or creamy coconut lemonade.
Storage Tips
Home fries in the oven are best made fresh, and they’re easy enough to do, too. If you have any leftovers, pop them into an airtight container in your fridge and polish them off within 4 days. You can also freeze them if you like, though it will change the texture a bit.
FAQ
Oven home fries need about 40 minutes total. You’ll want to flip them halfway through, and while you don’t have to, putting them under the broiler for about 5 minutes ensures perfect crispiness.
You absolutely must flip them over after 20 minutes. This ensures that each side gets crispy, just like you want.
Following this recipe will get them crispy, but if you want them even crispier, take about 10 minutes extra to soak them in ice-cold water. Drain them well and pat them completely dry, then follow the rest of the steps.
