Oven Crispy Breakfast Potatoes

Oven Crispy Breakfast Potatoes

The Kingston Farmers Market in Kingston, NY is my go-to every Saturday morning. I love shopping for the best produce from farmers so close to home. Dirt Dance Farm is an Asian led small farm right in town and Sarah, the owner happened to have these amazing heirloom potatoes this week. This is a bit time-consuming to make but it’s one of the best breakfast items for a Sunday morning!
