Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2–3 firm potatoes (Yukon Gold or Russet), sliced 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Optional Herbs & Spices

  • Paprika, garlic powder, or rosemary (optional, to taste)
  • Cayenne pepper or chili powder (optional, for a spicy kick)

Optional Additions

  • Grated Parmesan or cheddar cheese (for cheesy twist, added in last few minutes of cooking)
  • Fresh thyme, rosemary, or oregano (for herb infusion)

Instructions

  1. Prep the Potatoes: Wash and dry your potatoes thoroughly, then slice them evenly about 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick. Uniform slices ensure even cooking and consistent crispiness throughout.
  2. Season and Oil: In a large bowl, toss the potato slices with a tablespoon of olive oil, salt, pepper, and any desired spices. Make sure every slice is evenly coated without being drenched in oil.
  3. Preheat the Air Fryer: Set your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) and let it preheat for about 3-5 minutes. A hot basket helps jumpstart the crisping process.
  4. Arrange the Slices: Lay the potato slices in a single, even layer in the air fryer basket. Avoid overcrowding—they need space for air to circulate and crisp up properly.
  5. Cook and Flip: Air fry the potatoes for 10 minutes, then carefully flip each slice and continue cooking for another 5-8 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Adjust time as needed based on slice thickness and your air fryer’s power.
  6. Serve Immediately: For the best crunch, enjoy your Crispy Air Fryer Sliced Potatoes right after cooking, garnished with fresh herbs or a sprinkle of extra salt if needed.

Notes

  • Use thin, uniform slices for even crispiness.
  • Pat potato slices dry before oiling to remove excess moisture.
  • Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket; cook in batches if necessary.
  • Flip slices halfway through cooking for even browning and crisp texture.
  • Season potatoes after cooking to maximize flavor without burning.
  • Use cooking spray as a low-fat alternative to oil for crispy results.
