For an even crispier result, consider soaking the potato wedges in cold water for 30 minutes to an hour before cooking. This will remove even more starch. Adjust the spice blend to your preference! If you prefer a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper. These wedges are delicious on their own, or served with a spicy tomato dipping sauce (like a traditional patatas bravas sauce), aioli, or your favorite dipping sauce. Ensure your air fryer basket is not overcrowded to promote even cooking and maximum crispness. Work in batches if needed. Different air fryers may vary in cooking time, so keep a close watch on the potatoes during the final stages of cooking and adjust as needed. You can also use other types of potatoes, such as Yukon Gold, but russet potatoes tend to yield the crispiest results.

Follow The Directions
01
Step
5 mins
Cut potatoes into 8 equal wedges, ensuring they are under 5 inches long to prevent breakage.
02
Step
10 mins
Place potato wedges in a bowl with hot tap water and soak for about 10 minutes. This helps to release excess starch for extra crispiness. Remove potatoes from the water, rinse, and pat thoroughly dry with paper towels.
03
Step
5 mins
Preheat your air fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spray the air fryer basket generously with cooking oil spray to prevent sticking.
04
Step
5 mins
In a large bowl, add the potatoes and drizzle with vegetable oil. In a separate small bowl, combine the chili powder, cumin, paprika, coriander, garlic powder, and cinnamon. Sprinkle this aromatic spice blend evenly over the potatoes, and toss well to ensure each wedge is fully coated.
05
Step
5 mins
Transfer the seasoned potatoes to the preheated air fryer basket in a single layer, avoiding overcrowding. Cook in batches if necessary to maintain optimal airflow.
06
Step
25 mins
Air fry for 10 minutes. Carefully open the air fryer and use tongs to flip each wedge individually, ensuring even cooking. Continue to cook until the wedges are beautifully crispy and golden brown, approximately 10 to 15 minutes more. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning!
07
Step
2 mins
Season immediately with salt to taste while the potatoes are still hot. Serve immediately and enjoy!
