Here’s a super easy way to make Crispy Air Fryer Potato Slices — golden on the outside, fluffy inside, and perfect as a snack or side dish. 🥔✨

🍟 Crispy Air Fryer Potato Slices

Ingredients

• 3 medium potatoes (russet or Yukon gold work best)

• 1 ½ tablespoons olive oil (or avocado oil)

• ½ teaspoon garlic powder

• ½ teaspoon paprika (optional, for color)

• ½ teaspoon salt

• ¼ teaspoon black pepper

• 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan (optional, for extra crisp & flavor)

• Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

1. Prep potatoes:

   • Wash and peel (optional) potatoes.

   • Slice into ¼-inch rounds (thin for chips, thicker for crispy wedges).

   • Soak slices in cold water for 20–30 minutes to remove excess starch (helps crispiness).

   • Drain and pat dry very well with paper towels.

2. Season:

   • In a bowl, toss potato slices with oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.

   • Add Parmesan if using.

3. Air fry:

   • Preheat air fryer to 375°F (190°C).

   • Arrange slices in a single layer (cook in batches if needed).

   • Air fry 12–15 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crispy.

4. Serve:

   • Sprinkle with parsley and a little extra salt while hot.

   • Serve with ketchup, ranch, or garlic aioli.

✨ These come out like a cross between potato chips and steak fries — crunchy edges, soft centers.
