Servings: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 2 large russet potatoes or 3 medium washed and scrubbed
- 2 tbsp avocado oil or olive oil
- ¾ tsp salt
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp onion powder
- ½ tsp paprika
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- chopped parsley for serving optional
Instructions
- Slice potatoes into strips or wedge shapes.
- Soak potatoes in a large bowl with cold water for 15 minutes.
- Drain the potatoes and pat them as dry as possible using paper towels or clean kitchen towels.
- In a large bowl, toss with oil, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and black pepper.
- Add to an air fryer basket in a single layer (you may have to work in batches depending on the size of your air fryer).
- Air fry at 400°F for 15-20 minutes. Stop to shake/mix the wedges every 5 minutes for even cooking and to prevent burning.
- Serve with your favorite dipping sauce!
Notes
- Soak the potatoes. This helps remove the excess starch so the wedges crisp up.
- Dry the potatoes well. This also helps make them golden and crispy.
- Arrange the wedges in a single layer. Cook in batches if needed.
- Cook times may vary. Depending on the size of your air fryer and the size of the potato wedges, you may need more or less cook time.
- Serve immediately. This ensures the crispiest texture.
