Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.

2. Wash and cut the potatoes into chunks about the size of the end of your thumb. Peel if desired.

3. Place the potatoes in a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and mix with your hands until evenly coated.

4. In a separate bowl, mix together all remaining dry ingredients.

5. Sprinkle the seasoning mixture over the potatoes and toss until evenly coated.

6. Spread potatoes out on a rimmed baking pan in a single layer.

7. Bake for 20 minutes, then stir or flip the potatoes.

8. Return to the oven and bake an additional 10 to 20 minutes until golden, crispy, and fork tender.

Notes

Serve with vegan aioli, ketchup, or a drizzle of lemon juice for extra brightness.

Add chopped fresh herbs like parsley or thyme after baking for a fresh finish.

These potatoes work well as a base for bowls topped with veggies and sauces.

Leftovers can be reheated at 400 degrees for 10 to 15 minutes until crispy again.
