– 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
1. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F for 5 minutes.
2. Wash 1.5 pounds of creamer potatoes thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt.
3. Pat the potatoes completely dry with paper towels to ensure crispiness.
4. In a large bowl, combine 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
5. Add the dried potatoes to the bowl and toss until evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.
6. Place the potatoes in a single layer in the air fryer basket, avoiding overcrowding for even cooking.
7. Air fry at 400°F for 20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to promote browning.
8. Check the potatoes after 20 minutes; they should be golden brown and crispy on the outside.
9. Remove the potatoes from the air fryer and let them cool for 2-3 minutes before serving.
Done with minimal fuss, these potatoes boast a satisfying crunch on the outside while staying tender inside. Their smoky, garlicky flavor pairs perfectly with a dollop of sour cream or a sprinkle of fresh herbs. Try tossing them with grated Parmesan right after cooking for an extra savory twist.
Maple-Glazed Creamer Potatoes
Vividly golden and irresistibly sweet, these maple-glazed creamer potatoes are the ultimate cozy side dish. You’ll love how the caramelized maple syrup clings to each tender potato, creating a perfect balance of savory and sweet that’s sure to disappear fast from any dinner table.
Serving: 4 | Pre Time: 10 minutes | Cooking Time: 25 minutes
Ingredients
– 1.5 lbs creamer potatoes
– 2 tbsp olive oil
– 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
– 2 tbsp unsalted butter
– 1/2 tsp salt
– 1/4 tsp black pepper
– 1/4 tsp garlic powder
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Wash the creamer potatoes thoroughly and pat them completely dry with a clean kitchen towel—this helps them crisp up nicely.
3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, maple syrup, melted unsalted butter, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder, whisking until smooth.
4. Add the dried creamer potatoes to the bowl and toss them gently until they are evenly coated with the maple mixture.
5. Spread the coated potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they aren’t crowded to allow for even roasting.
6. Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then remove the baking sheet and carefully flip each potato with tongs for uniform browning.
7. Return the baking sheet to the oven and roast for an additional 5 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender and the glaze is bubbly and caramelized.
8. Transfer the roasted potatoes to a serving dish and let them cool for 2-3 minutes before serving to let the glaze set slightly.
Absolutely tender with a crispy exterior, these potatoes offer a delightful contrast in textures. Their rich maple flavor pairs beautifully with roasted meats or a simple green salad, and you can even sprinkle them with fresh herbs like thyme for an extra aromatic touch.
