Ingredients
- Air Fryer Baked Potatoes - use virtually any potato (sweet potatoes, Russet, baby, red, take your pick!)
- Air Fryer French Fries - use sweet potatoes or large white potatoes, like Russets
- Air Fryer Potato Chips - use virtually any potato or root vegetable
Instructions
Air Fryer Baked Potatoes
- Prep: Preheat air fryer to 390°F (200°C). Rub potatoes in a little vegetable oil and sprinkle with salt.
- Cook: Set potatoes in the air fryer in a single layer. Cook for 30 to 45 minutes, or until fork-tender, turning them over once during baking to evenly cook.
Air Fryer French Fries
- Soak: Cut potatoes into matchsticks using either a knife or a mandoline slicer. Soak sliced potatoes in a bowl of cold water for 1 to 2 hours. This removes starch to give them that perfectly crispy texture!
- Prep: Preheat air fryer to 390°F (200°C). Drain and pat dry potatoes. Add to a bowl, then drizzle with vegetable oil (about 1 teaspoon per potato) and a pinch of salt.
- Cook: Add fries to your air fryer, spread out in as single of a layer as possible. Cook for 15 to 20 minutes, shaking the basket a few times during cooking to evenly cook.
Air Fryer Potato Chips
- Soak: Cut potatoes into thin rounds using either a knife or a mandoline slicer. Soak sliced potatoes in a bowl of cold water for 1 to 2 hours. Just like with the air fryer potato fries, this removes starch to make them perfectly crispy.
- Prep: Preheat air fryer to 300°F (150°C). Drain and pat dry potatoes. Add to a bowl, then drizzle with vegetable oil (about 1 teaspoon per potato) and a pinch of salt.
- Cook: Add potatoes to your air fryer, spread out in as single of a layer as possible. Cook for 20 to 30 minutes, shaking the basket a few times during cooking to evenly cook. (If you hear your chips flying around in the air fryer, you can cover them with your air fryer grill plate to keep them relatively in place).
