  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder optional
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder optional

  4. Cook in Batches: Once preheated, place the seasoned potatoes into the air fryer basket. Try not to overcrowd - it’s better to cook in batches for the best crispiness.

  5. Cook: Air fry the potatoes for 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even cooking. Check for doneness by piercing with a fork; you want them to be soft inside and golden brown outside.
