  4. Form the mixture into small patties and place them in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
  5. Lightly spray the patties with cooking spray to help them crisp up.
  6. Air fry the quinoa potato cakes at 375°F (190°C) for 15-20 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until they are golden and crispy.
