How long do you air fry potatoes?

Cubed 1-inch potato pieces take 14–18 minutes at 400°F (205°C), shaken at 8 minutes. Wedges take 18–22 minutes, flipped at 10 minutes. Whole baby potatoes take 18–22 minutes. A whole baked russet (6–8 oz) takes 35–45 minutes at 400°F, flipped at 20 minutes. Soaking cut pieces in cold water for 15 minutes before cooking significantly improves crispiness.

What temperature is best for air fryer potatoes?

400°F (205°C) is ideal for most potato preparations — high enough to produce a crispy exterior while fully cooking the interior. Drop to 380°F (193°C) for thinly sliced rounds to prevent burning. For whole baked potatoes, 400°F for 35–45 minutes produces a fluffy interior with a crisp, salted skin.

How long does a baked potato take in the air fryer?

A medium russet (6–8 oz / 170–225 g), pierced, rubbed with oil and salt, takes 35–45 minutes at 400°F (205°C), flipped at the 20-minute mark. It is done when a fork pierces the center with no resistance and the internal temperature reaches around 210°F (99°C). Air fryer baked potatoes are done 15–25% faster than oven baked.

Tips

Soak cut potatoes in cold water for 15–30 minutes before cooking to rinse off surface starch — this is the key difference between crispy and soggy results.
Pat completely dry after soaking; water is the enemy of crispiness.
Use just enough oil to lightly coat — about 1 tsp per medium potato; too much oil makes them greasy.
Don't overcrowd; potatoes need hot air circulating around each piece to crisp rather than steam.
Season after cooking for wedges and fries, but season before for whole baked potatoes so the skin crisps with salt.

Veelgemaakte fouten

Skipping the soak — unsoaked cut potatoes are starchy and stick together, steaming in their own moisture.
Not drying after soaking; even a minute of drying matters significantly.
Piling potatoes in a deep heap — the bottom layer softens and the top layer burns.
Using too low a temperature (under 380°F) — potatoes need high heat to develop a crisp exterior before the interior overcooks.
Cooking only one side without shaking or flipping, producing an uneven crisp.
