Step 1: Prep the Potatoes
Scrub and dry your potatoes. Slice them thinly and evenly using a mandoline or sharp knife.

Step 4: Air Fry
Preheat air fryer to 400Β°F (200Β°C). Arrange slices in a single layer in the basket.
Air fry for 15β20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until crispy and golden brown.

π½οΈ Pro Tips for Perfect Potato Slices
-
Soak the slices: This removes excess starch, which helps them get crispier.
-
Use Yukon Gold: Their natural creaminess pairs perfectly with the crispy edges.
-
Donβt overcrowd: Cook in batches if needed. Crowding reduces crispiness.
-
Customize your seasoning: Add Italian herbs, cayenne, or even Parmesan!
