Smashed Potatoes (Air Fryer)

Step 1

Review all recipe notes and instructions before beginning.

Step 2

Place the potatoes and salt in a large pot. Add enough water to completely cover the potatoes. Bring the pot to a boil over medium high (or high) heat. Boil for 11-13 minutes or until a fork can easily pierce the potato. Do not overcook. Drain the water.

Step 3

In a large bowl, gently toss the potatoes and olive oil.

Step 4

On a large baking sheet or cutting board, one by one, gently smash the potatoes with the bottom of a flat glass.

Step 5

Transfer the smashed potatoes to the air fryer basket in a single layer. (Cook in batches if needed.)

Step 6

Air fry at 400 degrees for 15 minutes, flipping halfway through.

Step 7

While the potatoes are air frying, combine the butter, parmesan, garlic, italian seasoning, and salt in a small bowl. Once the potatoes are done, brush the butter mixture on each potato while they are still hot.
