Notes

  • Preheat your air fryer according to the manufacturer's instructions. 
  • Cut potatoes in half lengthwise. 
  • Baby potatoes can vary in size. You may want to leave very small potatoes whole, and you may find it necessary to cut larger potatoes into quarters. 
  • Evenly sized potato pieces will cook more evenly. 
  • Toss the potatoes in a large bowl to coat them in the seasoning and oil blend. 
  • Add potatoes in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Don’t overcrowd the air fryer. 
  • No additional oil is needed while air frying baby potatoes. 
  • Shake the basket halfway or every 5 minutes so the potatoes cook evenly. 
  • Potatoes will pierce easily with a fork when they are cooked through. 
  • The skins of the potatoes will be golden brown in color. 
  • Air fryers all cook differently, so adjust the cooking time accordingly.
  • Storage - keep leftovers in an airtight container inside the fridge for up to 4 days.
  • There are 6 WW Blue Plan SmartPoints in one serving of this.
