Our favorite breakfast potatoes! Super easy Oven Roasted Homestyle Breakfast Potatoes with flavor-packed bits of onion and bell pepper.
These beauties are my personal favorite oven-roasted breakfast potatoes! For me, the trick is cutting the onion and bell pepper smaller than the potatoes. I find that turns them into tender little flavor bombs as they roast. (Yum!) It’s also an awesome dish for big breakfasts and brunches because you can toss it in the oven to roast basically hassle-free. (Which also leaves the stove top clear for everything else.) Plus, if you’re making it around the holidays, try a colorful combo of red and green bell peppers to make it even more fun and festive!
Not to mention they’re delicious served alongside a nice warm Tofu Scramble. One of my favorite breakfast combinations and super satisfying and hearty.

Oven Roasted Breakfast Potatoes
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 lbs. potatoes (I like red or gold)
- 1 onion
- 1 large green bell pepper
- 2 Tbsp. olive oil (*optional)
- 1/2 tsp. smoked paprika (or other herbs/seasonings)
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425.
- Rinse potatoes, then dry with a towel. (This helps for crispier potatoes.)
- Dice potatoes into about 3/4″ cubes. Dice onion and bell pepper into smaller pieces, about 1/2″.
- Place them all on large rimmed baking pan and drizzle with a small amount of olive oil (*optional).
- Add salt and smoked paprika or other desired herbs. (Most commonly I also use garlic powder and basil.) Toss to thoroughly combine.
- Roast for about 45-50 minutes or until potatoes are desired tenderness, stirring halfway through.

Roasted potatoes are one of my favorites. Roasting them to go along side you eggs would be a great idea. Thanks for the inspiration.

YES! Potatoes are magical 🙂 They've been one of my favorite foods since I was a kid haha. Hope you enjoy it Velva!
wow! i've been browsing through your recipes and i just wanted to say THANK YOU for NOT. MAKING. IT. DIFFICULT to find the recipe and ingredients. your site is so much more user friendly than any other food site–and i think its because you don't tell us all the UNNECESSARY life stories that other bloggers think people want to read about.
so yea, just….thanks 🙂 keep it up.
Alright, your message totally made my day haha. Thanks for taking the time to write! <3 That means a lot because it's such an important focus for me here. It's a huge pet peeve of mine with sites that are so difficult to navigate and find the actual content you came for… So YAY! I'm glad it translated to you 🙂 Thanks a ton for your feedback and have a beautiful weekend!! -Kaitlin
