🧀How To Make
Step 1: First, start by rinsing and cleaning your potatoes. I love using a potato scrubber to help remove any dirt and debris.
Step 2: Next, preheat your air fryer to 350 degrees. Then while the air fryer is heating up, you will work on slicing your potatoes.
Step 3: To slice the potatoes the Hasselback style, you will do thin slices, not cutting through the entire potato. I leave the bottom of the potato uncut.
Step 4: Brush the thin sliced baked potatoes with oil, and salt and pepper. You will want to brush or spritz air fryer with cooking oil. Air fry for 20 minutes.
Step 5: At the 20-minute mark, open up and check on the air fryer potatoes. If they are looking close to being done, brush with oil again, and sprinkle grated parmesan.
Step 6: Lastly, you will bake another 5-10 minutes or until potatoes are done.
Storage
If you don’t eat all your potatoes right away, they will store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to five days.
You can reheat in the microwave, or opt for oven or air fryer to help crisp up the skins of the potato again. Heat until the potato is warmed through.
📌 Expert Tips
Here are some tips for this fancy potatoes recipe! These tips will help you to have the best success making crispy potatoes that are thinly sliced for a hasselback baked potato.
- Make sure you get oil in the creases of the potato slices, to ensure you get a crispy potato, as it can dry out as it air fries.
- You can buy a Hasselback cutter on Amazon to help!
- Depending on the size of the potatoes the cooking time will vary.
- For extra crispy potatoes cook the fried potatoes a bit longer in the air fryer.
- Olive oil, vegetable, or canola will work. Don’t use cooking spray in the air fryer, as it can eat the enamel away.
- Brushing the potatoes with oil is important, to ensure the oil mixture coats every area of the potato.
- You do not peel the potatoes for this recipe.
🧀 Recipe FAQs
Why are they called Hasselback potatoes?
A Swedish restaurant all the way back to 1953 was the first ones to serve up this thin sliced crispy potato recipe that they called a Hasselback potato. The name stuck, and since then we call it this.
What is the Hasselback technique?
A thin evenly sliced potato that is not cut all the way through. Then you can bake the potatoes in the oven or air fry, to a crispy texture.
How to know when baked potatoes are done?
Take a fork and stick it into the potato. You want to feel the potato is soft, and if you find it is still pretty stiff, it means you need to cook the potato a bit longer.
How to make Hasselback potatoes in the oven?
1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Wash and scrub potatoes.
2. Slice the potatoes thinly like you would the air fryer recipe. Coat in oil, salt, pepper, and any spices.
3. Bake for 30 minutes, and remove and re-coat the potatoes with more oil. Then return to the oven and bake an additional 30-40 minutes or until potatoes are cooked.

- 2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
- Salt and Pepper
- Seasonings optional
Instructions
Start by preheating your oven to 350 degrees F. Then work on washing and scrubbing your potatoes. Once clean pat dry.
Now, you will want to slice your potatoes thin all the way across not cutting the bottom part of the potato. You want the bottom of the potato to stay intact so it holds together.
Now take your oil and brush the potato all over, making sure to get in the creases you cut. Season with salt and pepper.
Place your potatoes in the air fryer, and cook for 20-25 minutes.
Remove potatoes and re-brush with oil, and then top with grated parmesan cheese if you want. Place back in the air fryer and cook another 5-10 minutes or until your potatoes are fully cooked.
Then serve up your Hasselback potatoes plain or add a dollop of sour cream, green onions, etc.
Notes
This recipe works in the Ninja Foodi and Instant Pot Duo Crisp. Just use the air fryer lid.
Cook Time: Depending on the size of the potato the cook time will vary.
To bake in the oven do 425 degrees for 30 minutes, re-coat in oil, and cook another 30-40 minutes.
Feel free to season your potatoes with spices or herbs if you want.
You do not need the cutting tool to slice potatoes, but it does speed things up quite a bit.
