Description

Making boxed scalloped potatoes in the air fryer is a quick and easy way to enjoy this classic side dish with a crispy top and creamy texture. Simply follow the instructions on the box, then cook in your air fryer for a fraction of the time it would take in the oven. The result is a perfectly golden, deliciously creamy dish that pairs perfectly with any main course!

Ingredients 

  • 1 package Au Gratin Potatoes

Ingredients as called for on the box.

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, make it per the boxes instructions (boiled water, milk, butter, the potato sauce, and the potato slices)
  • Mix until the butter is melted.
  • Pour the potato mixture into an air fryer safe pan (usually, if it's oven safe, it is air fryer safe)
  • Set the temperature to 330 degrees F, air fryer setting, for 20 to 25 minutes. After 15 minutes, check on the potatoes. The amount of time will depend on what type of pan you used and how thick it is.
  • Plate, serve and enjoy!

Equipment

  • Baking Pan, thin baking pan works best, or thin casserole dish

Notes

Pro Tips:

  • This recipe will work in any Air Fryer Basket or Oven Model. This recipe will also work in the Ninja Foodi, Instant Pot Vortex, Instant Pot Crisp Lid, PowerXL, GoWise, or Mealthy Lid. The cooking time will vary slightly.
  • For best results, use a thinner pan. This way, the entire dish gets perfectly cooked. If you do not have a quiche or tart pan, use ramekins, and adjust the time accordingly.
  • Check your potatoes about halfway through the cooking process. If you find that they are cooking too quickly, add a piece of aluminum foil wrapped tightly around them.
