Meet the 3-step potato recipe that’ll have you throw out all the rest (Page 2 ) | March 16, 2025

Serving: Serve these crispy, seasoned potatoes as a side dish to complement meats, vegetables, or salads. They’re also great on their own as a snack or appetizer.

Storage: If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. To reheat, simply bake them again for 5–7 minutes to crisp them back up.

Variations:
Spicy Kick: Add a pinch of cayenne pepper or smoked paprika to the seasoning mix for a spicy twist.
Herb Blend: Experiment with dried herbs such as thyme, rosemary, or oregano for a more fragrant option.
Cheesy: For a cheesy variation, top the potatoes with shredded cheddar or mozzarella cheese halfway through baking and return them to the oven until the cheese melts and bubbles.
Sweet Potato Option: Swap regular potatoes for sweet potatoes for a different flavor profile that pairs wonderfully with maple syrup or a sprinkle of cinnamon.
FAQs:
Can I use a different type of potato?
Yes! While Yukon Gold and Russet potatoes work best for this recipe due to their texture and flavor, you can use any potato you prefer. Keep in mind that different types of potatoes may require slight adjustments in baking time.

Can I make this recipe ahead of time?
Yes, you can prep the potatoes, season them, and store them in the fridge until you’re ready to bake. However, for the best texture, it’s ideal to bake them fresh.

Why are my potatoes not crispy?
If your potatoes aren’t getting crispy, it could be because they were too thickly sliced, or they weren’t spaced out enough on the baking sheet. Be sure to cut the slices thinly and avoid overcrowding the pan to allow the hot air to circulate and crisp them up.

Can I make this recipe in an air fryer?
Absolutely! Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C), then cook the potato slices for about 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through. Keep an eye on them to ensure they become golden and crispy!
