    These roasted crispy baby potatoes in air fryer are a super easy recipe. They are incredibly flavorful and make for a perfect side.

    Potatoes are perhaps my favorite comfort foods. Doing them in air fryer makes them so good. Perfectly crispy and delicious.

    You have to try these sinful smashed potatoes in air fryer, air fryer baked potatoes, air fryer baked sweet potatoes, air fryer tater tots, air fryer hash browns, air fryer french fries, and air fryer sweet potato fries.

    These baby potatoes are so easy to make. No need to peel as the peel gets super crispy with fluffly potato inside.

    I had a plateful for breakfast with my eggs.

    Tips for making perfect baby potatoes

    1. Leave the skin on as they get supremely crispy.

    2. Wash and dry the potatoes well. This helps in the oil and spices adhering well and turning them crispy.

    3. You can choose a combination of potatoes or just the brown ones.

    4. Use similar sized potatoes. I cut them in halves but you can leave them whole as well (will take more time).

    5. Use a nice spice mix to liven up their delicious roasted flavor. Any spices that you like work.

      I tried this recipe and it took 2 hours to make in my new air fryer at 400 degrees. What am I doing wrong?

        Something is not right. Is your air fryer heating properly? Maybe, get it checked out?
