Air Fryer Potato Wedges

Air Fryer Potato Wedges are here my friends.  Did we need another reason to eat our beloved potatoes?

Absolutely I say because these potatoes are super crispy, simply made, and completely Whole30 and paleo-friendly.

Break out your favorite air fryers friends, it's time to make some roasted potatoes in the air fryer!

I can't tell you how many people message me on Instagram asking if the air fryer is something they should get.  I'm going to make a bold statement here - but besides baking, I'd opt for the air fryer over my oven any day!

What makes me love my air fryer?  Let me count the ways:

1. Easy clean up - One pot to clean gets a huge thumbs up from me!
2. You can't beat the crisp - I can't replicate the air fryer crisp in my oven, no matter how hard I try!
3. Healthier than deep frying - with a fraction of the oil, you get the "fried" texture without a ton of oil.
4. So much flavor - I've found the air fryer gives my food a really delicious flavor - and adding in my favorite spices definitely helps 🙂

Air Fryer Potato Wedges are Super Family-Friendly

How often do you find a recipe that is easy to make and your entire family will eat?  This crispy air fryer potato is all that and a bag of chips (pun intended)

But seriously - if sweet potato chips are your thing, check out these air fryer sweet potato rounds because they actually give these air fryer potato wedges a run for their money!

I was happy to see my entire family sit down and there were zero complaints.  Even though I've shared a number of sweet potato recipes lately, knew that when it was a family friendly recipe, I had to share!

By the way, if you haven't bought an air fryer yet, what are you waiting for?  Check out my favorite air fryer and accessories!  I'm also a huge fan of the Ninja Foodi as it's an air fryer, slow cooker and pressure cooker all in one!

HOW TO MAKE AIR FRYER POTATO WEDGES

Step 1:  Thoroughly clean skin of the potatoes of choice. Slice off ends of potatoes and cut potatoes into similarly-sized wedges.

Step 2:  Add potatoes to a large bowl and coat with oil of choice. I used ghee.  Season with salt, pepper and cinnamon.

Step 3:  Add in a single layer to air fryer (sprayed with cooking spray). Air Fry potatoes at 400F for 8 minutes then flip and cook for an additional 6-8 minutes.

I also love making air fryer hash browns!
