Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Peel the potatoes and carrot, then grate them along with the red onion using a box grater or food processor.
Place the grated potatoes, carrot, and onion in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible. This step is crucial to ensure the patties become crispy.
Transfer the squeezed mixture into a large mixing bowl.
Add garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper to the mixture and toss until evenly combined.
In a small bowl, whisk the egg whites until slightly frothy.
Pour the egg whites over the potato mixture and stir until everything is well coated.
Drizzle the olive oil over the parchment-lined baking sheet.
Spoon the mixture into about 8 portions onto the baking sheet, flattening each with the back of a spoon to form patties.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
Carefully flip each patty using a spatula and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your heart-healthy crispy hashbrown patties!
