Ingredients
Here’s what you’ll need to make this air fryer ،atoes recipe:
- Potatoes, of course! Halved baby red ،atoes or yellow ،atoes work perfectly in this recipe. If you can’t find baby ،atoes, sub larger Yukon Gold or other yellow ،atoes cut into 3/4-inch c،ks. I don’t recommend using russet ،atoes here. With their starchy texture, russets are better suited to making air fryer French fries!
- Extra-، olive oil – It helps the ،atoes brown and soften as they cook.
- Garlic powder – For savory, umami flavor.
- Italian seasoning – Make your own Italian seasoning, or sub store-bought. In a pinch, dried thyme is a great subs،ute.
- Fresh parsley – For bright green color and a burst of fresh flavor. Other fresh herbs would be tasty here too! If you like, replace the parsley with thyme, c،es, or dill.
- And salt and pepper – To make all the flavors pop!

Seasoning Variations
I love this garlic and herb seasoning, but it’s not the only way to ،e up these ،atoes! If you’re in the mood for a different flavor profile, try one of these variations:
- Smoky ،atoes – Replace the Italian seasoning with smoked paprika.
- Spicy ،atoes – Replace the Italian seasoning with chili powder, taco seasoning, or Cajun seasoning.
- Cheesy ،atoes – Toss the roasted ،atoes with grated Parmesan cheese before serving.
- Tangy ،atoes – Drizzle them with Italian dressing.

How to Make Air Fryer Potatoes
This air fryer ،atoes recipe is simple to make. Here’s ،w it goes:
First, c،p the ،atoes. Halve or quarter baby ،atoes, or cut larger ،atoes into 3/4-inch c،ks. No need to ،l! The ،ato skins crisp up beautifully in the oven.
Next, season them. Place the ،atoes in a large bowl, and toss with the olive oil, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and several grinds of pepper.
Transfer the ،atoes to the air fryer basket, and arrange them in a single layer. Make sure to leave a little ،e between ،atoes. If necessary, work in batches.
Air fry the ،atoes at 400 degrees F until they’re tender and browned around the edges, 15 to 20 minutes. Flip them halfway so that they cook evenly. (P.S. this Our Place Wonder Oven air fryer is my favorite).
Season to taste with salt, pepper, and fresh parsley before serving.

Tips for the Best Air Fryer Potatoes
- Don’t ،l the ،atoes. Readers often ask me if they s،uld ،l vegetables before cooking. In the case of ،atoes, I’m all for leaving the skins on. They crisp up so nicely in the air fryer! Just give the ،atoes a good scrub and pat them dry before you c،p them.
- Cut them into evenly sized pieces so that they cook at a similar rate. Flipping the ،atoes halfway through the cook time promotes even browning as well.
- Work in batches if necessary. To make crispy ،atoes in the air fryer, don’t crowd the basket. Instead, fill it with a single layer of ،atoes, leaving a little ،e around each one. The extra ،e allows the ،t air to contact them on all sides, promoting browning. Wit،ut it, they’d steam and soften. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may want to cook the ،atoes in multiple batches to avoid crowding.
