Equipment

Air Fryer

Ingredients

1 tablespoon salted butter
1 tablespoon oil
pinch salt and pepper
½ teaspoon garlic powder
2 Russet or Yukon Gold potatoes

To serve

sour cream
chopped chives

Instructions

Preheat the air fryer to 400F.
Add the butter, oil and seasonings to a small pot and place on a low heat to melt the butter.
Wash and dry the potatoes.
Cut thin slices across the width of the potatoes about ⅔ down. Don't cut all the way through.
Gently fan out the slices and brush the butter and oil mix all over and in between the slices.
Place in the air fryer at 400F for 30 minutes or until tender.
Serve topped with sour cream and chopped chives, or your other favorite toppings.

Notes

Preheat your air fryer before adding the potatoes so that they cook through evenly. If your air fryer doesn't hve a preheat button, just run it at 400F for 5 minutes.
Take care not to cut the potatoes all the way through. You can use chopsticks or a wooden spoon to guide you; place the potato between two chopsticks on the counter and it will stop the knife from cutting all the way through.
Slice the potatoes as thinly as you can.
Once cut, fan the potatoes out and use a brush to brush the butter and oil in between the slices. Oil all over the outside of the potato.
Different air fryer models can run differently. Check to see if your potatoes are tender by inserting a toothpick in the bottom and cook for longer if needed.
