Home Kitchen Simple Rosemary Breakfast Potatoes

If there’s one breakfast item that I do right (if I don’t say so my self😏) is breakfast potatoes. Regular or sweet potato, I’ve roasted them all and are my go-to breakfast side, because there’s nothing better than the yolk of a fried egg cascading over top. Crispy potatoes, silky yolk. Yum!

Besides being especially good, these rosemary breakfast potatoes are s-i-m-p-l-e. Simply a few ingredients and 25 minutes is all you need to put these fine-looking and flavor-packed potatoes on the table.

Prepare your tastebuds for deliciousness.

To Make These Simple Rosemary Breakfast Potatoes gather:

  • redskin potatoes (scrubbed and patted dry)
  • olive oil
  • all-purpose season salt
  • fresh rosemary
  • coarsely ground black pepper

Preheat your oven to 400℉ (or 200℃).

Place the diced potatoes onto a rimmed, metal baking sheet and drizzle with 2 teaspoons extra light olive oil.

Season with 2 teaspoons both all-purpose season salt and finely minced fresh rosemary. I make a kitchen-made season salt similar to Lawry’s, however you can use a store-bought version if you wish to.

Toss to combine and spread out in an even layer. Roast the rosemary breakfast potatoes on the lowest rack of your oven for 10 minutes. Remove and rotate the pan halfway and continue to roast on the middle rack for another 10-12 minutes or until fork tender.

Remove and allow to cool before attempting to lift or serve the potatoes. The key to serving any roasted diced potato is allow it to cool for a few minutes before trying to serve. Otherwise the crispy side will no doubt stick to the pan and you’ll loose that textured side. Patience and I promise (once cool enough) they will release themselves from the pan.

That’s it! SO unfussy.

As I mentioned before, these crispy rosemary breakfast potatoes are flavor-packed served with a fried (or scrambled!) eggs, but they are also my go-to side to serve with a crustless quiche!
