- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions
- Preheat your air fryer to 400 degrees F (200°C) for 3-5 minutes. Place the bottom of the potato on a cutting board, and cut potatoes into 1/4 to 1/2 thick slices.
- Combine the melted butter, salt, garlic powder, paprika, and black pepper in a small bowl. Add the sliced potatoes to the bowl, toss them well, and coat them with the butter mixture.
