Baked Potato Wedges

Here’s a simple recipe for baked potato wedges that I’ve been making quite often lately. I’ve received requests to share straightforward yet delicious potato recipes that can be enjoyed as a snack with ketchup or chili sauce, or as a side dish alongside meat or a fresh salad.

I frequently prepare these baked wedges as a healthier substitute for fries, and they’re always a hit with everyone, making them a perfect choice when friends come over. Kids adore them too, but I make sure to keep the spice level in check when they’re around.

There are numerous variations you can try with these baked potato wedges, such as adding herbs or other spices, or sprinkling cheese on top right after they come out of the oven. If you have any other suggestions, feel free to share them in the comments!

How to make baked potato wedges

Begin by preheating the oven to 220°C (425°F). Next, wash the potatoes and cut them into wedges.

Then, place the potato wedges into a large bowl. Sprinkle paprika, chili powder, garlic powder (if used), salt, pepper, and oil over the wedges, and toss gently to coat them evenly.

Afterward, lay the seasoned wedges in a single layer on a greased baking tray.

Bake the wedges for about 25-30 minutes until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside.

Enjoy these wedges alongside your favorite dips and salads.

Hope you will try these delightful baked potato wedges. If you do, make sure to share the photos with me on Instagram. Enjoy your delicious potato treat!

      Thank you for your nice words 🙂 . If  it is of any help.. we usually serve them with some grilled fish filet or just a fresh salad. These are so good that until the fish is done almost half of the potatoes are gone. 🙂
