These Air Fryer Roasted Potatoes are only 2 ingredients and are SO easy! They are the crispiest, fluffiest potatoes that you will ever eat!

PIN Air Fryer Roasted Potatoes

Crispy, golden brown on the outside and seriously FLUFFY on the inside.

That’s how I like my potatoes. Don’t care if they’re in the form of air fryer sweet potato fries, oven roasted lemon Greek potatoes or these air fried potatoes, that is how I want the potato situation to go down in my mouth. Sometimes I can handle soft Instant pot boiled potatoes, but I have to be in the right “mood” ya know?

Some call it picky. I call it “in the know.”

And, you guys, leave it to the air fryer to make potato magic happen. Now we know it makes the crispiest air fryer Brussels Sprouts, crispy baked air fryer chicken breast AND potatoes.

If you wanted to throw an air fryer dinner party, you have all the recipes you need right in that sentence: protein, veggies, carb. <3

Air Fryer Roasted Potatoes Ingredients

I ADORE my air fryer. Whether I’m making Air Fryer Potato Wedges or Air Fried Fish, I’m a fan.
Now let’s get talking about the recipe I have for you today. Hot. Crispy. Fluffy. Easy. DELISH. These air fryer fried potatoes really have it all! They can be dipped and dunked into different rich sauces, or eaten plain with a dash of salt and pepper. They can be enjoyed all loaded up with toppings or on their own for those little ones in the family or picky eaters. All around, these are a MUST when you’re hosting a party and need a crowd pleaser. And the bonus: there are only 3 ingredients.
For this recipe, you will need:

  • Yellow Potatoes
  • Olive Oil
  • Salt

What Kind of Potatoes to use?

There are many different kinds of potatoes and here at FFF we love them all! Some are great for frying, some for roasting, others for mashing up for Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner.
To make these potatoes in air fryer, I used Yellow Potatoes, just like the roasted potatoes and asparagus. They crisp up really nice and I thought they turned out perfect. However, you can get creative and switch it up a little if you have a different kind of potato.
Any potatoes should work in this recipe as long as you cut them as recommended in the directions!

How to Air Fry Potatoes

I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again. These delicious fried potatoes in air fryer are as EASY as they are delicious! Here’s how you’re going to make it happen:
Preheat
Turn on your air fryer and set it to 400 degrees to preheat.
Prepare
Wash and dry your potatoes well and then cut them into quarters. Toss them in a bowl with olive oil and a generous sprinkle of salt.
Cook
Arrange the potatoes cut side down in the mesh basket of your air fryer. Cook for 12 minutes. Next, flip the potatoes and allow them to cook another 8-10 minutes, or until crispy and golden brown. 
Enjoy
Let them cool a little and then devour!

How long to cook Potatoes in Air Fryer

As said above, it usually takes about 20-25 minutes to cook these potatoes in my air fryer (flipping about halfway through the cook time). I find that it even varies when using the same air fryer, as the size of the potatoes aren’t always the same. When using another brand of air fryer, cook time can vary, so you just need to watch the potatoes to make sure they are golden brown and fork tender. 

What to Serve with Air Fryer Roasted Potatoes

As if these potatoes aren’t tasty enough on their own, you can jazz them up even more with different dipping sauces! A few that would pair well and that I recommend are:

  • Honey Mustard Dip: Go ahead and snag this dip from a delicious chicken recipe that I LOVE (go ahead and make the chicken too- it would pair so fantastically!)
  • Crockpot Healthy Buffalo Chicken Dip with Cauliflower: this would be a match made in heaven!
  • Ketchup or mayo with sriracha would be a tasty way to dip and enjoy these potatoes!
