Air Fryer Hasselback Potatoes

Hasselback potatoes look fancy and cook cleanly in an air fryer: thin slices fan open, oil gets into the cuts, and the tops turn shatter-crisp.

Step-by-step instructions

Follow each step in order. Photos show what to look for so the basket finish matches the plate.

Prep

  1. Slice accordion-style

    Cut thin slits across each potato, stopping before the bottom. Brush with butter, garlic and salt, working some into the cuts.

    Even spacing matters more than perfection. Thin tips crisp first.

Cook

  1. Air fry until crisp

    Cook at 375°F (190°C) for 30-35 minutes, brushing once at 20 minutes, until tips are deep gold and centers are tender.

    A knife should slide through easily. If tips brown too fast, tent loosely with foil briefly.
