Method
 

How to Make Air Fryer Potato Wedges
  1. Wash and scrub the Russet potatoes under cool water. Pat them dry thoroughly before cutting them into even wedges for uniform cooking.
  2. In a large bowl, toss the potato wedges with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Make sure each wedge is evenly coated with the spices for maximum flavor.
  3. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C). This step is crucial for achieving that golden-brown finish on your wedges.
  4. Place the seasoned wedges in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cooking them this way will ensure that they crisp up beautifully, taking around 15-20 minutes.
  5. Halfway through the cooking time, shake the basket gently to promote even crispiness. Your potato wedges should be golden brown and look irresistible!
  6. Once cooked, remove the wedges from the air fryer and let them cool slightly. Serve them warm, and enjoy the delightful crunch paired with a fluffy interior.

Notes

To achieve the best texture for your Air Fryer Potato Wedges, cut the potatoes into evenly sized wedges. Avoid overcrowding the air fryer for optimal crispiness. For enhanced flavor, consider marinating the potato wedges in the seasoning mixture for about 30 minutes before air frying.
