Thank you for this recipe! This was my first time to actually cook with canned potatoes and the air fried sliced potatoes were excellent! I made with my typical spices (Italian seasoning, paprika, garlic powder, salt and pepper). Once they were cooked and while waiting for rest of meal to finish, I tossed in some butter, grated cheese and parsley and let that settle nicely in air fryer until I added to meal. Major yum!
I am so glad you liked them! 🙂
