AIR FRYER POTATO TIPS
This is one simple recipe! It is super easy to cook potatoes in your air fryer! The best part is that you can adjust the cook time to suit your needs.
Like crunchy potatoes, cook longer.
Want tender potatoes, adjust the temp down and adjust the time.
Cheesy potatoes, simply sprinkle on some shredded cheese in the last minute of cook time!
If you love ranch, you can even sprinkle some dry ranch powder seasoning on your potatoes as well!
Pro Tip: This recipe can be made in the air fryer unit with a basket or the air fryer oven.
If you are using the air fryer oven, use the middle rack and select the "Air Fry" function.
