Preheat the Air Fryer: Set your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
Prepare the Potatoes: Wash and dry the potatoes. If using larger baby potatoes, cut them in halves or quarters to ensure even cooking.
Season: In a large bowl, toss the potatoes with olive oil, minced garlic, dried thyme, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
Air Fry: Place the potatoes in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 18–22 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on the outside.
Serve: Transfer to a serving dish, sprinkle with extra thyme if desired, and enjoy immediately.
Tips
Crispier Potatoes: Preheat the air fryer for 3–5 minutes before adding the potatoes.
Even Cooking: Don’t overcrowd the basket; cook in batches if needed.
Flavor Boost: Add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice or sprinkle of Parmesan before serving for extra flavor.
Storage: Leftovers can be reheated in the air fryer at 350°F (175°C) for 5–7 minutes to restore crispiness.
