How Long To Cook Fresh Potatoes In Air Fryer

Air fryer roasted potatoes with garlic and herbs are cooked to golden, crispy perfection. They are the perfect side dish for breakfast, lunch or dinner.

I promise I will be making more than just potatoes in my air fryer one day real soon. 🤣 I just cannot help myself!

This little device makes the perfect baked potato, French fries and now…may I introduce my newest air fryer potato obsession: roasted potatoes with garlic and herbs.

My mom was here, helping me with the kids since my recent cancer diagnosis. I made these twice while she was here, and she had a fit! I think she was about ready to get an air fryer only to make these potatoes…LOL!

Also, I started eating the leftovers with scrambled eggs for breakfast. I just reheat them in my toaster oven while my eggs are cooking. So yummy!

How to Make Air Fryer Roasted Potatoes

We have made these with Russets, red potatoes and Yukon golds. The Yukon golds are what you are seeing in these photos, but all of them work great!👍🏻

I chose not to peel my potatoes. We like the peeling, and my mom always said that's where all the vitamins are!😆 Even though we buy organic potatoes, I still give mine a good scrub first, and pat them dry with either a paper towel or a kitchen towel. Of course, you can always peel them if you prefer.

I use cooking spray for this recipe. It really helps to distribute the oil evenly, plus I do need very much of it.

I love avocado oil spray! It is great for any recipe that uses high heat. Plus, it is very mild in taste. This is not sponsored, by the way.

I give the air fryer basket a good spray first. Then I add my potatoes in. I give the potatoes a good spray too.

Next, I add the salt, pepper, granulated garlic (or garlic powder), oregano and basil. Then I toss everything to make sure the potatoes get evenly coated. My hands work fine for this. But I used a spoon here to keep my hands clean for the camera.😉👌🏻

Then I cook it at 400 degrees until they get the crispy look that I am going for, which usually ends up being somewhere between 20 and 24 minutes.

This particular batch took 22 minutes, by the way. I do toss mine a couple times during those twenty-something minutes to ensure even cooking.

Also, side note, I have made this many times to figure out what is the maximum amount I can make with great results. The answer: 1.5 pounds of potatoes.

I used four medium Yukon golds. If you do more than this, the cooking seems to get uneven. That is my main complaint about the air fryer – limited capacity! But this recipe does make four hearty servings. Less than this is fine, but I would not recommend any more than 1.5 pounds.

The result? Roasted potato perfection!😍👌🏻
