Ingredients

1 ½ lbs baby potatoes
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon dried herbs
salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Place the baby potatoes into a microwave safe bowl and cover with a damp paper towel. Microwave on high for 5-7 minutes or until fork tender.
Once the potatoes have slightly cooled, lay them out on a piece of parchment paper or waxed paper. Using a fork, gently smash the potatoes down.
Brush the tops with melted butter and then top with salt, pepper garlic powder and herbs to taste.
Place them in your air fryer in a single layer, at 400 degrees for about 8-10 minutes. Check them at about the 6-7 minute mark and shake the basket a little to toss them around.
Finish cooking – total time about 10 minutes or so (all air fryers vary!). Remove from air fryer when finished, toss in more butter and herbs if desired. Serve immediately.
