How to Make the Best Easy Air Fryer Fingerling Potatoes

Crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, these air fryer fingerling potatoes are the perfect side dish for any meal. With just a few simple seasonings and 20 minutes of cooking time, you’ll have restaurant-quality potatoes that taste homemade and wholesome.

Fingerling potatoes are ideal for this recipe because their small, elongated shape allows them to cook evenly and quickly in the air fryer. The combination of garlic powder, rosemary, thyme, and smoked paprika creates a savory flavor profile that pairs beautifully with chicken, fish, or beef. Plus, air frying means they get wonderfully crispy without all the oil of traditional deep frying.

This is the kind of side dish that becomes a family favorite—easy to make, packed with flavor, and ready in less time than it takes to cook the main course. Make a batch today and watch them disappear from the table!
