Air Fryer Frozen Potato Wedges
Frozen potato wedges turn crackly and golden in the air fryer with a quick preheat, a light spritz of oil, and a simple seasoned salt finish. No thawing, no fuss—just crispy edges and fluffy centers in about 20 minutes.

Ingredients
Wedges & Seasoning
- 24 oz frozen potato wedges
- 6 sprays avocado oil spray (or canola spray)
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Preheat the air fryer to 390°F for 3 minutes. Do not thaw the wedges.
- In a small bowl, stir together the kosher salt and garlic powder; set aside.
- Add the frozen potato wedges to the basket or rack in a single layer with a little space between pieces. Lightly mist with oil spray.
- Air fry for 8 minutes.
- Turn the wedges with tongs (rotate trays if your fryer has more than one level), spritz again, and cook 7–8 minutes more until the edges are crisp and the centers are tender.
- Transfer wedges to a bowl, sprinkle with the salt–garlic mixture, toss well, and return to the air fryer for 1 minute to set the seasoning.
- Let rest 1 minute for the crust to firm up, then serve immediately.
Notes
Tip: For maximum crunch, keep wedges in a single layer and cook in batches; overcrowding traps steam and softens the crust.
Serve hot with your favorite dip (ketchup, chipotle mayo, or BBQ). Leftovers keep 2 days in the fridge; re-crisp at 360°F for 3–4 minutes.
