Ingredients
  

1 cup fresh spinach, chopped

1 cup canned artichoke hearts, drained and chopped

1 cup frozen hash browns, thawed

1/2 cup breadcrumbs (Italian seasoned or panko for crunch)

1/2 cup grated mozzarella cheese

1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1 large egg, beaten

Cooking spray

Instructions
 

Preheat the Air Fryer: Start by preheating your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 5 minutes.

    Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped spinach, artichoke hearts, thawed hash browns, breadcrumbs, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, crushed red pepper, oregano, salt, black pepper, and beaten egg. Mix until everything is well combined.

      Form Tots: Using your hands, take a small amount of the mixture (about 1 tablespoon) and form it into a tight tot shape. Repeat this until all the mixture is shaped into tots, placing them on a lined tray.

        Prepare for Air Frying: Lightly spray the tops of the tots with cooking spray to give them a crispy texture.

          Air Fry the Tots: Place the tots in the air fryer basket in a single layer, ensuring they don’t touch each other. You may need to cook them in batches, depending on your air fryer size. Air fry for 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the tots are golden brown and crispy.

            Serve and Enjoy: Remove the tots from the air fryer and allow them to cool slightly before serving. Pair with a spicy marinara or ranch dipping sauce, and enjoy your flavorful, crunchy treats!
