❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Can I prep these ahead of time?
Yes! Slice and season them a few hours ahead, then bake when ready.
Can I use other potatoes?
Yes—Yukon Golds work well for a creamier texture, but russets give the crispiest results.
Why aren’t my potatoes fanning out?
Make sure you cut deep enough but not all the way through, and space the slices evenly.
Can I air fry them?
Yes, but you may need to cook in batches depending on air fryer size.
