Description

Deliciously crispy air fryer russet potatoes seasoned to perfection.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 russet potatoes (any size)
  • ½ tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Scrub the potatoes well and let air dry.
  2. Once dried, pierce the potatoes several times with a fork.
  3. In a shallow dish, combine the olive oil, salt, garlic powder, and black pepper. Roll the potatoes in this mixture, coating the skin of the potato evenly with the salt mixture. Alternatively, brush the potatoes with olive oil and sprinkle seasonings evenly over the surface of each potato.
  4. Place the seasoned potatoes into the air fryer basket or on the tray, ensuring the potatoes are not touching.
  5. If needed, preheat your air fryer to 400℉.
  6. Then air fry the potatoes at 400℉ for 30-55 minutes, flipping after 20-25 minutes. Base the cook time on the size of your potato:
    • Small Potatoes: Cook for 20 minutes, flip, and cook for an additional 10-15 minutes
    • Regular Potatoes: Cook for 20 minutes, flip, and cook for an additional 15-20 minutes
    • Large Potatoes: Cook for 25 minutes, flip, and cook for an additional 20-25 minutes.
  7. Remove the potatoes from the air fryer and serve as desired.

Notes

  • Cooking times may vary based on the size of the potatoes.
  • Ensure potatoes are evenly coated for the best flavor.
