Description

Whole fingerling potatoes roasted in the air fryer with just olive oil, salt, and pepper. Crispy blistered skins, creamy centers, and no cutting required.

Ingredients 

  • 2 pounds fingerling potatoes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  • Scrub the fingerling potatoes and dry them thoroughly with a clean towel.
  • In a large bowl, toss the potatoes with the olive oil until fully coated, then season with the kosher salt and black pepper.
  • Spread the potatoes in a single layer in the air fryer basket or tray.
  • Set the temperature to 400 degrees F (air fryer setting) for 12 to 15 minutes, shaking the basket at the halfway point.
  • Check that a fork slides easily into the thickest potato before removing. Plate, serve, and enjoy.

Equipment

  • Air Fryer
  • Parchment Paper, optional
  • Cooking Spray

Notes

For potatoes larger than 3 inches, increase to 16–20 minutes. To halve them lengthwise instead, reduce to 10–12 minutes and place them cut side down.
