Ingredients for this Recipe

• Mini Potatoes – I used mini Yukon Gold potatoes, but small red potatoes would work as well.
• Truffle infused olive oil – I prefer black truffle oil, which has a stronger, more earthy flavor, but if you like the lighter flavor of white truffle oil, you’re free to use that!
• Parmesan Cheese – pre-grated from your local grocery store is fine!
• Thyme – the thyme from my garden this summer is still thriving, so I used that! Dried is fine too!
• Butter – this is melted and mixed with a combination of spices and poured over the top of the hasselback potatoes right when they come out of the oven
• Spices – a combination of garlic powder, chives, salt and pepper puts the finishing touch on these little bites

A pencil or a chopstick is the perfect thing to use as a guide for cutting hasselback potatoes. Be sure to keep your knife level and parallel to your cutting surface as you cut.

Drizzle with truffle inused olive oil

This is where that delicious truffle flavor is infused into each tiny potato, and helps to create those crispy edges everyone loves!

Because everything is better with a little cheese!

Air Fry or Bake

Air fry or bake the potatoes at 375 degrees F for 20 minutes or until the potatoes are golden brown.

Use a guide. Using a pencil or chopstick when slicing these hasselback potatoes makes cutting them a breeze!

Space the potatoes out in the oven. Overcrowding will result in the potatoes being steamed, which will prohibit those crispy edges from forming. Make sure there’s space in between your potatoes when roasting.
