Air Fryer Sliced Potatoes are crispy, golden potato rounds made quickly in an air fryer with minimal oil — a delicious, easy side dish that pairs well with breakfast, burgers, or dinner.

Ingredients

  • 2 large potatoes (Yukon Gold, red, or russet), washed and dried
  • 12 tablespoons olive oil (or avocado oil)
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • Optional seasonings: garlic powder, paprika or smoked paprika
  • Optional garnish: chopped fresh parsley or grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Slice the potatoes evenly into 1/8–1/4‑inch rounds using a sharp knife or mandoline.
  2. Place the potato slices in a bowl, drizzle with olive oil, and toss with salt, pepper, and any optional seasonings.
  3. Preheat the air fryer to 375 °F (190 °C) for a few minutes.
  4. Arrange potato slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket — cook in batches if needed to avoid overcrowding.
  5. Air fry for 12–15 minutes, flipping halfway through. Cook until slices are golden and crisp around the edges.
  6. Remove and immediately sprinkle with chopped parsley or grated Parmesan if desired — serve hot.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, soak potato slices in cold water for 15–20 minutes before drying and seasoning (removes excess starch).
  • Try mixing in herbs like rosemary or thyme for a savory twist.
  • For a spicy kick, add cayenne or chili powder to the seasoning.
  • To make cheesy slices, add grated Parmesan during the last 2 minutes of cooking.
  • Try sweet potatoes instead of regular potatoes — a nice sweet‑savory variation (season with a pinch of cinnamon and salt).
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the air fryer at 350 °F (175 °C) for 4–5 minutes to restore crispiness. Avoid microwaving if you want to keep them crunchy.
