Storage & Make-Ahead Tips
How to Store
Store leftover potato bites in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 to 4 days.
How to Reheat
Reheat in the air fryer or oven until hot and crispy again. The microwave works for speed, but the potatoes will be softer.
Can You Make Them Ahead?
You can boil and season the potatoes ahead of time, then roast or air fry them right before serving. Add garlic butter after reheating for the best flavor.
Can You Freeze Them?
You can freeze cooked potato bites, but they taste best fresh. Reheat from frozen in the oven or air fryer until hot and crisp.
