Airfryer Crispy Roasted Onion Potatoes are a quick and simple 3 ingredient side dish recipe ready in just 20 minutes!

You guys know I love Instant Pot recipes, as I have been making more and more of them lately. What you might not realize, is that i use my Airfryer even more than my electric pressure cooker! The fact of the matter is, I typically use my Airfryer for super lazy last minute meals. Whether I’m popping some frozen chicken strips and sweet potato fries or making a mini pizza, it is such a convenient appliance for baking things up quickly and with little fuss. Every now and again, I even use it for a real life recipe like these Airfryer Crispy Roasted Onion Potatoes or Airfryer Baked Thai Peanut Chicken Egg Rolls.

This recipe isn’t something new and inventive by any stretch of the imagination. My mom was making this classic recipe with Lipton Onion Soup Mix in the oven, back when we were children. The difference is, this recipe for Airfryer Crispy Roasted Onion Potatoes uses less oil and is ready in a fraction of the time thanks to the Airfryer technology.

Simply toss your baby red potatoes with olive oil and a packet of the onion soup mix and put them in your Airfryer basket. Bake the potatoes on the highest heat setting for 20 minutes, giving them one toss in the middle of the cooking time. After 20 minutes, you will have beautiful crispy potatoes with perfectly cooked centers ready for a delicious side dish.

I love pairing these Airfryer Crispy Roasted Onion Potatoes with a Pressure Cooker Pork Loin or a simple grilled chicken breast. I recently brought some of these out to guys working in the field with pork loin and they were definitely happy campers!

      I only recently bought one for myself during the 2019 July Amazon Prime Days sale. Have only used it once (I reside alone), and the above recipe will I think be my 2nd time to cook in it! I’m the type of person, who reads a recipe, and if I see that I already have the ingredients in my pantry, I’ll give the recipe a go! So, yay me!—-I’ve olive oil, onion soup mix, and, of course……..red potatoes!! I’m actually looking forward to mealtime……will be preparing yellow squash with slow cooker carmelized onions on the stove-top, the old school way, as well as whipping up a batch of cabbage & ham!! Good eats, for sure!!

    My Air fryer says to soak my potatoes for 30 minutes before I do any recipe. Yours doesn’t say to do that. Should I?

      Nope, I wouldn’t soak my potatoes for this recipe. I didn’t and they came out great.

      If you want your potatoes soft on the inside and crunchy on the outside then soak them in hot water for about 5 minutes. Do not let the water boil. Salt your water for an even better taste !!!

      Hope this helps.

    Hi their I’m new to air fryers can you just spray the potatoes in oil then just back them without using the soup thank you

      You can definitely skip the soup mix, it just adds flavor. Be sure to salt them if you don’t use the soup mix though.

    My first “from scratch” in grandsons’ air fryer and they couldn’t have been better!
    Can’t use Soup Mix because we have to cook GF, so I used Onion Salt with a Garlic/Pepper Mix.
    All 5 of us loved them!

      No, unfortunately that wouldn’t be a good substitution for this recipe.
