Notes
Storage Tips:
You can store your potato spears in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. To reheat, we recommend placing them on a baking sheet in a 425-degree oven for a few minutes until they are crispy again. You can also reheat in an air fryer. Reheating in the microwave isn’t recommended as the spears will lose their crunch. Expert Tips:
This is a great base recipe for baking potato wedges in the oven. Once you have the technique down, you can add all kinds of flavors. Try tossing with onion powder or garlic powder. You could also toss with smoked paprika or chili powder. Everything But the Bagel seasoning is delicious as well, especially if you serve a big plate of these with a runny egg on top. You can also toss the potato spears with parmesan cheese, or herbs like fresh thyme or rosemary.
