Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, these Air Fryer Potato Logs are a delicious and easy snack or side dish. Made with shredded potatoes and cheese, they’re perfectly seasoned and cooked to golden perfection in the air fryer.
3 medium russet potatoes, peeled and shredded
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1/4 cup finely chopped green onions
1 large egg, beaten
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
Cooking spray
Place the shredded potatoes in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much excess moisture as possible.
In a large bowl, combine the shredded potatoes, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, shredded cheddar cheese, and chopped green onions.
Add the beaten egg and flour to the potato mixture and mix well until all ingredients are evenly combined.
Divide the mixture into 12 equal portions and shape each portion into a log approximately 3 inches long and 1 inch thick.
Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 5 minutes.
Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Place the potato logs in a single layer in the air fryer basket, making sure they do not touch. You may need to cook in batches.
Spray the tops of the potato logs lightly with cooking spray.
Cook the potato logs at 400°F (200°C) for 12 to 15 minutes, turning halfway through cooking, until they are golden brown and crispy on all sides.
Remove from the air fryer and let cool slightly before serving.
