Ingredients

  • 2 medium Russet Idaho potatoes, or sweet potatoes
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or oil of choice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon paprika

Instructions

  • Preheat your air fryer to 380 degrees.
  • Scrub your potatoes clean. If desired, peel them (I prefer to leave the skins on for a crispier texture). Cut the potatoes into uniform, 1/4-inch-thick or 1/2-inch-thick strips. Rinse the potatoes with cold water and pat dry.
  • Transfer the potatoes to a bowl, add the olive oil, salt, black pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and paprika and toss to coat.
  • Working in batches, place the potatoes in the air fryer basket and spread out in a single layer, leaving a little space between each piece. Air fry for 10 to 12 minutes, until crispy, flipping halfway through cooking. If your fries aren’t yet crispy, air fry for a little longer.
  • Once you’ve cooked all batches of fries, place them all back in the air fryer and air fry for 1 to 2 more minutes to reheat and re-crisp.
  • Season to taste with salt, black pepper, and additional seasonings if desired.
