01Method

  1. 1

    Set the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) and allow it to preheat.

  2. 2

    Place the potatoes in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high until just fork-tender, about 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Arrange the cooked potatoes on a baking sheet and press each one flat using the base of a small glass, aiming for about 3/4 to 1/2 inch thickness — flatter potatoes will turn out crispier.

  4. 4

    Brush the tops of the smashed potatoes with the melted butter, then season with salt, garlic powder, and black pepper.

  5. 5

    Arrange the potatoes in a single layer in the air fryer basket and cook until golden and crisp, about 10 minutes. Finish with a scattering of fresh parsley and serve immediately.
