Get a healthy dose of carbs in the morning by making this crispy breakfast potatoes from IHOP copycat recipe! IHOP is home to world-famous pancakes and a variety of American breakfasts. And their side dishes like these breakfast potatoes are undeniably a crowd favorite too.
So what’s the secret of IHOP’s crispy breakfast potatoes? It’s actually all in the seasoning. The majority of the spices are pantry staples like garlic powder and onion powder. Dehydrated bell peppers are uncommon, but are added for a slightly sweet and tangy flavor just like IHOP’s. And for a kick of heat to round out the flavors, we added in some cayenne pepper and paprika.
Now the main ingredient and the star of the recipe is none other than the potatoes. We recommend using russet or Yukon gold potatoes for these fried crispy fried breakfast potatoes. They have high starch content and will add a slightly buttery flavor to your dish.
Our IHOP-inspired breakfast potatoes are coated with bread crumbs, then deep-fried for a perfectly crispy and golden brown outside. Not only is it scrumptiously filling, but it’s vegan too! Serve this as a side dish with IHOP french toast for a sweet-savory breakfast meal.
