    Roasted baby potatoes in air fryer — once you try it, you will not cook them any other way.

    They’re generally healthier because there’s barely any oil in them, just enough to give them those crunchy bits everyone loves.

    If you’re not a fan of oregano or parsley, use the herbs you prefer or skip them altogether — you will still get a delicious plate of roasted small potatoes!

    Ingredients

    All the ingredients you need to cook baby potatoes in an air fryer.
    • Baby potatoes – scrubbed, rinsed, and drained.
    • Herbs – I typically use dried parsley and oregano when making these air fryer baby potatoes.
    • Seasoning – paprika, salt, and ground black pepper.
    • Olive oil – very little; just enough to coat the potatoes.  It’s the secret to getting those crispy edges in your roasted baby potatoes.

    Preparation

    Start preparing your air fryer baby potatoes by making sure all the small potatoes are (almost) the same size — I generally chop those that are bigger than one inch into halves.

    Combine the potatoes, olive oil, herbs, paprika, salt, and pepper (photo 1).

    Helpful tips

    • Do not skip the preheating of the air fryer, even if the instruction manual indicates that it’s not necessary. 
    • You can spray your baby potatoes with oil directly instead of combining it with herbs and spices.
    • Feel free to use your favorite dried herbs — thyme and rosemary are also excellent options.
    • Dried herbs are better for these air fryer small potatoes than the fresh ones because they are less likely to burn in the air fryer.
