Not a fan of baby potatoes? Try air frying some sweet potato fries instead! For a low-carb option, I highly recommend roasting some acorn squash.
How To Cook Baby Potatoes In The Air Fryer
Before you start cooking these baby potatoes, make sure to rinse them with some warm water and completely dry them off before seasoning. If you leave them wet, the seasonings won’t stick to them.
Once you are done prepping, add the baby potatoes to a bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and Italian seasonings.
Toss the potatoes with your hands until they are evenly coated with olive oil and seasonings!
Add the batch of small potatoes to that air fryer basket.
Cook them in the air fryer at 400F for 20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through the cooking time.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
Cooking Tips:
- These air fryer baby potatoes are great for meal prep! To reheat them, place them on a microwaveable safe plate and reheat for about 45 seconds. You can also reheat them in the air fryer.
- You can use any kind of baby potatoes you like. I once used baby purple potatoes and they tasted delicious!
What To Serve With Air-Fried Baby Potatoes
Whenever I make these baby potatoes in the air fryer, I like to serve them alongside some baked greek lemon chicken thighs and roasted asparagus spears for a wholesome dinner. It’s one of my go-to weekly meals!
For a spicy southern flavor, toss the potatoes with your favorite cajun seasoning and serve with some juicy shrimp, andouille sausage, and buttery corn on the cob for a classic seafood feast!
