Best Air Fryer Roast Potatoes Recipe
We all love crispy roast potatoes in the air fryer! These air fried potatoes are a game changer! First of all, the potatoes cook so crispy and perfectly in the air fryer. Second of all, they cook so much faster in the air fryer than a conventional oven. You don’t have to wait for a big oven to pre-heat! Just oil and season the potatoes, and cook in the air fryer. Before you know it, the potatoes are done and they turn out amazing! We’ve never had these crispy results so quick in the regular oven. Learning how to cook potatoes in the air fryer is the way to go!

What are the Best Air Fryers?
There’s so many on the market now. You just need to research and find the ones that fits your needs, capacity and style. We group the basket style air fryers into 2 main size groups: 3-4 qt range & the 5-6 qt. range. Here’s our favorites:
Cosori 3.7 qt. Digital Air Fryer – “That’s a stylish Air Fryer” was said as we unboxed the Cosori. Beyond being stylish, it has cooked great. The basket is not as tall and wider than most in its size group, which is perfect. You’ll have a lot better results in an air fryer with single layered, spread out foods, then with ones piled high and thick.
The non-stick basket style (non-wire base) & smoothness of the basket tray is also great for clean up.
Ninja 4 qt. Digital Air Fryer – Has a great ceramic coated basket, one of the longest lasting we’ve used. Super powerful fan that will often cook recipes even faster than other air fryers. We initially returned our first one because we thought we wouldn’t like the basket style. After reconsidering, we bought another and are super glad we did. We love it’s basket and just a platform insert. One less bulky thing to wash. This is a great air fryer.
Good Larger Air Fryers
Tiluxury 5.8 qt. Digital Air Fryer – It’s a good larger air fryer capable of cooking for larger families, especially when you need to cook more food. It’s great for cooking bigger batches (ie 4 salmon fillets instead of 2 or 2 lbs of fries instead of 1).We like that this Tiluxury 5.8 qt has the non-stick basket (non-wire base). Makes for less sticking for delicate meals (ie baked fish fillets). And we like the digital interface (easier cleaning).
Gourmia 6 qt. Digital Air Fryer – This is quickly becoming one of our favorite larger basket style air fryers. Great basket size, good controls, cooks nice. Clean up is great. It has become one of our kitchen favorites. We’ll often find it as Costco at a great price too!- 1 pound potatoes , scrubbed and dried
- 1 Tablespoon Oil for coating , or spray
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt , to taste
- Fresh cracked black pepper , to taste
- Cut potatoes into small bite sized pieces. Add potatoes to bowl and coat with oil or cooking spray.
- Sprinkle garlic powder over potatoes and season with salt and pepper.
- Air Fry at 380°F for 20-25 minutes, shaking and tossing halfway through cooking. If needed, toss a third time to get all edges of potatoes evenly crisped. It's so good!

Great for making home style breakfast potatoes. I added some cheese on top and served with scrambled eggs. Perfect!
Lyndsey says
This is a much healthier alternative. And they came out crisp with less oil. Thanks for the recipe.
Louuse says
Excellent, I made them spicy with thyme, basil, Cheyenne, salt pepper. I paired them with spinach scrambled eggs. Yummm
Best Recipe Box says
The pairing sounds great. What a wonderful breakfast!
Linda Bordonaro says
I was thinking of running a potato through my spiralizer and then air frying it. I just have no idea of time and temperature. I can use your recipe for seasoning, but could you suggest time and temperature?
Best Recipe Box says
Hi Linda, we would suggest using the same temperature and time as the recipe. But just check it and turn it more often to make sure all the spirals crisp. Then you can adjust time to your preferred crispness.
