🥔 Air Fryer Potato Slices

🕒 Prep Time: 10 min

🕒 Cook Time: 15–20 min
🍽️ Serves: 2–4

🧂 Ingredients:

• 2 medium potatoes (Yukon Gold or Russet work best)

• 1–2 tbsp olive oil

• 1/2 tsp salt (or to taste)

• 1/4 tsp black pepper

• 1/2 tsp garlic powder (optional)

• 1/2 tsp smoked paprika (optional)

🔪 Instructions:

1. Prep the Potatoes:

   • Wash and scrub potatoes.

   • Slice into 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick rounds — thin enough to crisp but thick enough to stay tender inside.

   • Pat slices dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture (important for crispiness!).

2. Season:

   • Toss potato slices with olive oil, salt, pepper, and any optional seasonings.

3. Air Fry:

   • Preheat air fryer to 375°F (190°C) if your model requires it.

   • Arrange slices in a single layer in the basket (you may need to do multiple batches).

   • Air fry for 15–20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy. Thinner slices may be done closer to 12–15 minutes.

4. Serve:

   • Enjoy immediately with ketchup, ranch, or a sprinkle of Parmesan and parsley.

🔁 Variations:

• Cheesy: Sprinkle with shredded cheese in the last 2 minutes of cooking.

• Spicy: Add cayenne or chili powder.

• Herby: Use rosemary, thyme, or Italian seasoning.
