Ingredients

5 medium red potatoes washed and diced into 1 inch pieces (no need to peel)
3 tbsp melted butter choose a plant-based butter if vegan (like Earth Balance)
2 tsp dried dill
1 tsp Herbs de Provence
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp salt
pinch pepper

Optional Topping

chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425F.
In a small bowl mix together melted butter with herbs and spices. (The herb mixture will seem thick, but it will spread evenly over the potatoes nicely!)
3 tbsp melted butter, 2 tsp dried dill, 1 tsp Herbs de Provence, 1 tsp onion powder, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp salt, pinch pepper
In a large bowl add your potatoes and then drizzle the melted butter herb mixture over the top. Toss until combined.
5 medium red potatoes
Spread out evenly on a baking sheet. Cook on top rack in oven for ~30 minutes until browned and crispy. Stir your potatoes halfway to ensure even cooking.
Optional: To further crisp up potatoes, broil potatoes for a 1-2 minutes (watch closely so they don't burn!)
Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for a pretty garnish. Serve right away - enjoy on their or dip them in more ranch!

Notes

Common questions:

Can I make these ranch potatoes in the air fryer?

Yes, you can make ranch potatoes in the air fryer. Preheat your air fryer for a few minutes at 400 F. Add your potatoes as evenly as possible in the air fryer basket. Air fry for 15-20 minutes, shaking halfway through, until you have tender potatoes with crispy golden edges.

Why use butter instead of olive oil?

Since we are trying to replicate that "ranch" flavor without the use of a ranch packet, the butter provides a creaminess that mimics ranch. If you don't have butter, you can still use extra virgin olive oil and get great results!
