WHEN you've got kids, the cost of treating the whole family to a takeaway can work out pretty pricey.

But one savvy mum has found the perfect solution – by making her own McDonald's breakfast using an Air Fryer and food from Aldi.

The TikTok user, who post under the acronym @twistedpysche862, shared a video where she's seen placing the burger patty and a hash brown into the Air Fryer for six minutes.

Next, she cracks an egg into a bowl and puts it into the kitchen appliance, followed by the muffins.

"Who needs Maccies when you have Aldi, an Air Fryer and a Sunday morning?" she asked.

The clever mum captioned the post: "Literally saves so much money time and the kids LOVE Them."
