  • Salt and pepper to taste

  • ¼ teaspoon dried thyme
  • ¼ teaspoon dried rosemary

Instructions

  • Start by washing and scrubbing your potatoes, then pat them dry.
  • Slice them crosswise and lengthwise into thin slices. Be careful not to cut all the way through. The potato petals must still be attached to the base of the potato.
  • Place the potatoes in the microwave, and cook on high for 5-7 minutes until soft.
  • Preheat the air fryer to 390°F (195°C).
  • Remove potatoes from the microwave and brush them with olive oil or melted butter, then sprinkle with salt and pepper, to taste, garlic powder, rosemary, thyme, and/or seasoning of choice.
  • Place the potatoes in the air fryer and cook on airfry setting for 10-12 minutes, or until they are tender and golden brown with crispy skin. I use Ninja Foodi XL 6in1.
  • The Blooming potatoes are ready to be served. Sprinkle with your favorite toppings and enjoy!

Notes

HOW TO CUT BLOOMING HASSELBACK POTATOTo cut a Hasselback potato, start by placing it on a cutting board. Then, use a sharp knife to make thin slices along the potato, then across the potato, careful not to cut all the way through. Aim to make the squares (potato petals) approximately 5-7 mm in size (0.197-0.276 inches).
