    I am obsessed with all things made from a potato! These Air Fryer Potato Wedges are crisped and seasoned to perfection. They are so simple to prepare and can be served alongside any of your favorite meat dishes.

    Using the air fryer, this quick recipe is ready in less than 15 minutes. This will be the perfect side dish for your next dinner or will be great as an appetizer! Another air fryer side I like to make is my Easy Air Fryer Spaghetti Squash, Roasted Carrots and Cauliflower, Roasted Leeks, Roasted Bok Choy, Air Fryer Turkey Burgers. and Peas and Potatoes. These potatoes would be the best addition to pair with my Steak Date Night Dinner with Garlic Aioli for a complete meal. I love dipping these homemade fries in fun sauces like my Lemon Dill Aioli.

    Ingredients

    Ingredients for air fryer potatoes in glass bowls on a table.
    • Russet potatoes- These potatoes are great for frying and crisping. The inside is light and fluffy which goes great with the seasonings. Russet potatoes are oblong and larger than white potatoes. You can also use sweet potatoes for this recipe if you want an option that is lower in carbs.
    • Olive oil- Greases up the potatoes and allows the seasonings to stick. You can also use avocado oil or ghee. I have a Homemade Ghee recipe on my blog that will teach you how to make your own!
    • Paprika, parsley flakes, chili powder, sea salt, black pepper- This seasoning combination is seriously amazing on these potatoes. It is so perfect– savory with a slight spice. Feel free to adjust to preference. 

    See recipe card below for a full list of ingredients and measurements.

    Substitutions and Variations

    • Russet potatoes- You can substitute sweet potatoes for a lower carb option.

    Expert Tips

    • Tip # 1: An air fryer is the best way to cook potato wedges! Online traditional crispy fry recipes, you do not need to use corn starch to make these fries crispy. Cooking them in the air fryer does it naturally.
    • Tip #2: When picking your potatoes for this recipe, russet potatoes should be firm and free of soft spots. Soft spots indicate that they potato could be rotten inside.
    • Tip #3: You can adjust the seasonings in this recipe to your preference. If you would like more spice, add some cayenne. If you would like a more earthy flavor, add some rosemary.

    Recipe FAQ’s
