Parmesan Potato Wedges Air Fryer Recipe
Quick and savory air fryer potato wedges with parmesan that cook in less than 20 minutes! The recipe is gluten-free, to make it dairy free, vegan, Whole30, or paleo, skip the parmesan cheese.
Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 medium russet potatoes cut into 4" long wedges
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic salt or sea salt
- ½ teaspoon sweet paprika optional
- ⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon grated parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Wash the potatoes and cut them into 4" long wedges.
- To make the potatoes as crispy as possible, as an optional step, put the potato wedges in a medium size bowl, add the potatoes, and cover them with water. Let sit for 1 hour. Pat them dry with paper towels.
- Preheat the air fryer to 400F for 5 minutes.
- Add the potatoes to a bowl and then coat with the olive oil, garlic salt, sweet paprika, black pepper, and grated parmesan cheese. Combine well.
- Place the potatoes skin side down in the air fryer, they'll be in a single layer. We used a Cosori air fryer and were only able to fit slices for 1 ½ large potatoes at a time. If you're using smaller potatoes, you might be able to hold all of the slices from 2 potatoes depending on the size of your air fryer.
- The potatoes will take about 20 minutes to cook all the way through, they'll be crispy on the outside and tender on the inside!
- Sprinkle with parmesan cheese and more salt or garlic salt to taste before serving. Enjoy!
Notes
Slice 2 medium to large Russet slices in half and then slice each half into 4 sections for a total of 8 wedges per potato.
There's no need to peel the potatoes, but cut off any eyes or sprouts coming up.
The parmesan is optional and can be left off to make this a dairy-free, whole30, paleo recipe.
Other kinds of potatoes will work too - Yukon gold, red, purple, sweet potatoes, or mixed potatoes. If you're using potatoes other than Russet, it could change the potato cooking time. Set the air fryer to 400F and check them after 15 minutes to start testing for doneness.
