  • 0.5 onion
  • 0.15 oz chives
  • 1 tbsp milk
  • 1 tbsp clarified butter
  • 1.7 oz bacon
  • salt
  • pepper
  • pickles (for serving)

Instructions

  1. 1

    For this air fryer Bauernfrüstück recipe, first cook potatoes with skin on in a pot of boiling and salted water and cook for approx. 18–20 min., depending on the potato size, until a fork can poke through with some resistance. Then drain and let the potatoes cool down.

  2. 2

    While the potatoes are cooking, dice onion and thinly slice chives. In a bowl, whisk eggs with milk and then season with salt and pepper. Peel the potatoes and cut into approx. 1.5 cm /0.6 in. thick slices.

  3. 3

    Melt clarified butter in a big non-stick frying pan and add potato slices to fry for approx. 8–10 min. or until golden. Then add chopped onion and cubed bacon and fry briefly. Transfer potato mix into an air fryer mold. Pour egg mixture on top and place in the air fryer at 180°C/356°F, air-frying for approx. 15–20 min. until the egg is set. Serve with chives and pickles.
