Storage & Reheating Tips
How to Store
Store leftover air fryer potatoes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
How to Reheat
Reheat in the air fryer at 375°F for 4 to 6 minutes, or until hot and crispy again. This is the best way to bring back the crunchy outside.
Can You Freeze Them?
Cooked potatoes can be frozen, but the texture is best fresh or refrigerated. If freezing, reheat directly in the air fryer until hot and crisp.
Best Make-Ahead Tip
Cut the potatoes ahead and store them in cold water in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Drain and dry very well before seasoning and air frying.
