Air fryer mini potatoes are a fast and easy side dish that you can whip up for lunch or dinner. Every now and again, I buy the bag of Baby Creamer Potatoes from Costco. Because I’m cooking for one, I never use all 5 lbs at once. This is what makes the air fryer a great option. I can prepare the amount that I want for a meal and maybe enough to eat with a couple more meals, and then prepare a new batch when I need them.
This recipe is very simple. You will likely have all of these ingredients in your pantry or fridge. I will say that it’s definitely for those that enjoy a garlicky, salty potato. Keep reading for the recipe, a quick video of the preparation, and serving suggestions!

Serving Suggestions for Air Fryer Mini Potatoes
These mini potatoes make a great side dish with any protein. The garlic and salt add a ton of flavor, and you really don’t need anything else with it. If you’re a ketchup or hot sauce fan, you might want a little on the side for an added kick, but it’s really not necessary.
