Air Fryer Hasselback Potatoes deliver crisp, ruffled edges and buttery, tender centers, brushed with a garlic–paprika butter that seeps between each slice. The smoky spice, fresh parsley, and a touch of olive oil make them aromatic and richly seasoned. Perfect as a showy side for dinner or a standout addition to a weekend spread.

Air Fryer Hasselback Potatoes
  1. 1

    Preheat the air fryer to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and gather all the ingredients.

  2. 2

    Slice each potato into 1/4-inch cuts, stopping about 1/2-inch from the bottom so the base stays intact. Mix the butter, olive oil, garlic, and paprika in a small bowl.

  3. 3

    Brush some of the mixture over each potato and into the slits, then season with salt and pepper.

  4. 4

    Place the potatoes in the basket and cook in the preheated air fryer for 15 minutes.

  5. 5

    Brush the potatoes with the butter mixture, letting it run down the fanned slices so they do not dry out, and cook until the potatoes are cooked through, about 15 minutes more.

  6. 6

    Remove the potatoes from the basket and brush with any remaining butter mixture, then sprinkle with chopped parsley.
