These babies are the perfect combination of flavors and textures, with a zesty blend of spices that will leave you wanting more. And the best part? They’re ridiculously easy to make Simply slice up some potatoes, toss them with a mixture of olive oil, salt, and your favorite seasonings, and bake until golden brown.

But here’s the secret to getting those perfect crispy edges: make sure to spread the wedges out on the baking sheet in a single layer. This allows for even air circulation and prevents them from steaming instead of browning. Trust us, it makes all the difference

Now, we know what you’re thinking: “Can I use other types of potatoes?” And the answer is, yes But keep in mind that Russet potatoes are the way to go for the best texture and consistency. If you’re feeling adventurous, go ahead and experiment with other varieties, but be prepared for a slightly different outcome.

And don’t even get us started on the importance of starch Adding a bit of starch to the outside of the potatoes is the key to achieving that perfect crunch. It’s science, folks

Now that we’ve got the basics covered, let’s talk prep time. You can definitely make these potato wedges ahead of time, but we recommend doing it just before baking for the best results. And if you do happen to have leftovers, don’t worry – they’ll keep in the fridge for up to 3 days.

So, are you ready to get your bake on and make some seriously delicious Baked Potato Wedges? Let’s get started

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). While that’s heating up, let’s get our potatoes ready. Cut them into wedges and place them in a bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt, and toss to coat.

Now it’s time to add the magic. In a small bowl, mix together your favorite seasonings (we recommend a zesty blend of paprika, garlic powder, and chili powder). Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the potatoes, making sure each wedge gets a good coating.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Arrange the potato wedges in a single layer, leaving some space between each wedge for even air circulation.

Bake the potatoes for 20-25 minutes, or until they’re golden brown and crispy on the outside. Flip them halfway through the cooking time to ensure even browning.

And that’s it Your Baked Potato Wedges are ready to devour. Serve them hot with your favorite dipping sauce, and enjoy the ooohs and ahhhs from your family and friends.
