Roast Potatoes In an Air Fryer
Looking for a hassle-free way to make perfectly crispy roasted potatoes? Look no further than this simple Air Fryer Roasted Potatoes recipe! With just a handful of ingredients and minimal prep time, you can have delicious golden potatoes that make the perfect side dish for any meal.

Ingredients
- 3 pounds baby red and gold potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 teaspoons salt

Directions
Begin by washing the potatoes thoroughly. Slice the baby potatoes in half or into bite-sized pieces and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Drizzle the potatoes with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Toss the potatoes in the bowl to ensure they are evenly coated with the seasonings.

Transfer the seasoned potatoes into the air fryer basket, spreading them out evenly. Cook at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, toss the potatoes well to ensure even cooking, then cook for an additional 10 minutes.

Once the potatoes are crispy and golden brown, remove them from the air fryer and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.

Tips
- Soaking the potatoes in water for 20 minutes after cutting can help draw out extra starch, resulting in crispier potatoes.
- These potatoes can also be served as a main dish by adding toppings like sour cream, bacon bits, and cheese for a loaded baked potato twist.
- Remember to toss and adjust the potatoes halfway through the cooking process to ensure even cooking and crispiness.
- This recipe is suitable for 4-quart or larger air fryers. If you use a smaller air fryer, cook the potatoes in batches to avoid overcrowding.
- If your air fryer doesn’t reach 400 degrees Fahrenheit, use the closest setting available and adjust the cooking time accordingly.
- Feel free to customize the seasoning to match your preferences or complement the main course you’re serving.
With these simple steps and helpful tips, you’ll have perfectly crispy and flavorful roasted potatoes ready to enjoy in no time!
